Yikes !!! I thought I must have missed it but it's all there waiting for attention :)))
Thank you, everyone, for the super captures and info :)
I can't believe they arrived together - but they did! ;-D
Three matings altogether, only the first successful, IMHO. They were on the nest nearly 13 minutes, this is cut down to 5 but no significant activity missing - you know how they like to stand and (males) mantle and (females) look a bit nonplussed ;)
UNCUT VERSION:
The first was the best ;)
He sat here for ages after his second nestcupping:

IMAGICAT
Sample activities:
She's fish-calling but he brought more nest material.
Just to show I've done it, OK to copy a snap from that laptop to this and then upload it here, but I can't do it with 1hr video clips to edit them :'(
Heehee, he's in his fave place:
Well a new rail has arrived.

I was going to post a snap of the first fly-in pre-daycam, but look what had happened - now you don't see an O, now you do! In the same second !!! If I'd been running the download, I wonder if it would have dropped out at that time.
