The sadness of Monty's failure to return has been somewhat mitigated by Idris's almost seamless takeover as Telyn's partner.
They have 3 eggs:
Egg #1 ~ 17 April @ 05:58
Egg #2 ~ 20 April @ 01:40
Egg #3 ~ 22 April @ 22:56
Dyfi's usual ultra-wonderful coverage of the nest has been dimmed by (1) coronavirus restrictions and (2) laptop failure, a refurb has taken over. We are grateful for what we are getting, in the circumstances.

15:02 Idris was taking bites from the fish and offered a piece to one of the Bobs. Telyn, quite vocal, took the fish and proceeded to feed the chicks

Stickgate! Around 15:10, while Telyn was feeding the chicks, Idris flew in with a stick. He placed it over the chicks (twice) but Telyn was having none of it and moved it in a more suitable position! lol Pics from scroll back

I've been thinking that there's been less interest in this nest than in previous years. The Monty factor?
Idris came to the nest @ 05:10 this morning, he poked about and then just stood by, he was there for 20 minutes.
