In between 2 Mistle Thrush performances, a Nuthatch found a tiny morsel on the nest - just to show we care ;)
That's only up to about 12:30 - nest clip due to finish 18:30.

Great to see you, Sheila !!! !!! !!!
After 23:00 - gaps deleted:
I could only find them because I had YouTube open for a while, checking Chat, and heard one live.
Wonderful Tawny calls ! but dunno about an aircraft - - think it was the alien craft revisiting the Osprey nest
Enjoyed the Nuthatch too - sweet little bird thanks once more Scylla
Dawn raindrops - different in character on this new lens ;-D
Well into the morning:
I haven't found anything earth-shattering up to 16:20-ish.
Still raining at Glaslyn at the moment.

Good morning, MARY! Your second snap is a rare view
The raindrops were really loud earlier - I'm not going to test them again ;)
Good Morning SCYLLA
I was thinking the same about the wonderful sound we now have at Glaslyn, it is picking up every rain drop, we will need to turn it down once there are chicks on the nest screaming for fish from Dad. The raindrop sounds were so loud my OH came in from the other room to see what the noise was LOL....
Squirrel @ 07:08 reported by TheGreatGeraldo on Chat - I'd never have seen it, this is the only glimpse of its face I got and I was just shutting everything down for the blasted 3rd Windows Update. Heather thinks it lives nearby.
I'm off for a while.
