It is with much regret to report that Lassie (LF15) did not return
Good morning all. Fabulous captures, thank you. Love NC0's wing spread pic!
Anytime soon I would think, Karen

Good morning all, thank you for all the updates and captures! Not had much chance to look in today, and when I have it's been empty nest. Surely we must be getting near her laying an egg, feels like she's been here forever LOL

Morning Starling :) Lol, two weeks tomorrow
Another successful mating though, at first, she did try to peck him off
12:56 Intruder around?
Any possible intrusion passed. Laddie mated with NC0 and he then flew off

With that in mind I've checked the matings this morning - which started off very positively !!!
A too-quick run-thru might have missed some mating attempts but I think these are all there were and they were all successful - not as many, IMHO, as we'd see in an established couple?
Laddie gave her a meaningful look ;)
Both alert:
She spent some time in the nestcup and on one occasion was toying with bits in a comfortable manner.
Buffering!
