Yesterday morning the nest was given a makeover by an unringed male whom we can't quite single out from the various unringed males who've been seen since our precious unringed resident departed.

Lots more terrific snaps on pages 1 & 2 of yesterday's DU, videos on page 3.
For the rest of the day, only the usual small birds were seen and heard - foraging:
IMAGICAT
Flown. (I'm on the phone with someone who is cross at not having 100% of attention.)
So I missed a flyby when stop/starting.
Someone is tapping, a small bird.
Back with another stick. More civilised one this time.
Good morning if anyone's here. I'm hanging on to put stick vids together.
He just flew.
Distant chirps heard, mixed with those of tiny birds.

He actually chested it over the side, it looked absolutely deliberate!

His favourite approach is from the right, so we have seen sticks fly in.
The awkard stick:
That was a mistake. It's got to go!
See what a good partner I'll make?
Good Morning SCYLLA
Good morning, PATILY :) Have I missed MIKE or is he very late this morning? I'll do a scout around for him.
He's been on other threads
