Thanks for the TV blog. Valerie :)

Thanks Valerie. Very sad about SS but as with other nests who've lost long-time partners, glad there's a new male on the block.

The Carnyx Kestrel in Yorkshire has 5 eggs :) ( that was from Peter at Carnyx yesterday) so might have six now maybe !!!!

I've got more than 96 hours to go thru   

Better get started ;)  But I wonder if we should amalgamate the 2 threads, perhaps I'll link my stuff over onto Wendy's quarry thread?

EDIT - Or maybe not - it was Peter who posted the 2020 continuation on the 2015 thread, so maybe I should take up Wendy's suggestion and ask him to add this year to the thread title?

I decided to post my YD Kestrel in WENDY'S QUARRY KESTREL thread.

Not sure where to post this, as no Osprey Chat thread now. 

I happened to come upon this wonderful video from the Smithsonian Institute posted last month.  

It shows fantastic footage of a peregrine falcon chasing an Osprey for its catch.
