High time I started a DU thread! It's the first day of May and EJ the Beautiful is fast asleep:
If all goes to plan we should have chicks this month! Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic after last year but I'm feeling positive for this pair.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
It is lovely to sit here watching EJ and Glesni on their nests, especially as I've got a beautiful little cockatiel sitting on my shoulder! She is contentedly fluffed up and gazing adoringly at me.

21.29 Night cam on
Good night all.
Definitely getting darker, unlike yesterday:
On with the night cam, at 21:29
Good night, Moffer!
I'm off to bed. Let's hope EJ has a peaceful night followed by a big fish early in the morning.
Just catching up with what's been happening. I see fairly peaceful except for the intruder alert etc. Some fantastic pics and thanks for all updates and vids.
