I realised from Tiger and chloes Clocks this nest was ready to hatch.
and wondered if others have been watching?
Kate, Sometimes it pays to be an only child--has its parents complete attention! Just sad that he/she became an only child in the way that it did! Home alone at the moment.
Kind regards, Ann
Do you see what I see
Sat tagged chick.
as piccie but when? and is it ringed also?
Well today we could do with the famous leg pose, but after a feed and a potter I did glimpse a blue ring on the right leg. then a lovely wing stretch, before an exhausted lie down.
Hopefully this little one will have a good life ahead, and we can see it return in years to come. Be safe little one.
Thanks KATE No news from LD then?
Kate - LDOP were having a name the chick competition to raise funds which I think closed yesterday, so I would imagine there will be a blog shortly with all the details and the chick's name.

Thanks STARLING
Thanks for the news and pics. I hope we get an update soon, with ring, sex and name. I was there last monday, and the chap on duty said it would be fairly soon for ringing, and probable tagging, and about the naming of the chick.
Here is what you have been waiting for!
