Looks like they had a couple of huge fish last night, so obviously not hungry! And this may be the remains of one of those.
They did Alison. I captured the shot at 8.19. Telyn brought one in followed soon after by Monty.
Birdies LG DU update.
Monty still on the nest
I don't think Monty can believe nobody has come for the fish He is still standing there looking around
He has just flown, taking the fish with him
It is over an hour now since there was a chick on the nest or even in sight! Helyg left at 0645.
And dear Monty has waited over 50 minutes for his usually hungry brood
Monty flies back with his fish. Still no takers!
Snoopy thinks they may be perched down by the river.
Last time I looked there were two juveniles on the nest, with Monty feeding one of them.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Monty is feeding Dilas, I think whilst ? looks on
