March thread.
This post updated 01 June
MrsG returned on the 25th of March and was joined by Aran on the 29th.
(The beginning of the reunion video is a must-see for all fans of MrsG - I'm posting it today 01 June, to remind us of a happy time before the tragedies of May 2021.)
The month of May brought unrelenting wind, rain and corvids, as well as persistent intruder KS8 (among others) - and Aran somehow injured his right wing, rendering him unable to fish. Within a few days all the chicks had sickened and died. It could hardly have been more stressful for MrsG and Aran, but they are recovering together while the caring Glaslyn team is supplying fish each night.
(The chicks' bodies have been removed from the nest by Aran and MrsG, so we shall never know the cause of their deaths.)
In the right margin of this page are links to Glaslyn's posts documenting the misfortunes on the nest.

Birdies LG DU update.
Today's birdies - well, not all of them, and some dwelt on longer than others. The sound is a problem because this mike just loves the wind. There's a bit where the Buzzard (I think) isn't doing anything at all and you'll wonder why it's included - there was a little bird singing but it didn't come thru in the end
Unknown said:I think we have Lolo to thank for that (can never remember how he spells his name, sigh)
It's the dang serifless font that causes the confusion - here he is in big bold lower case::

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I'm always a bit miffed that Glaslyn's #1 language on Facebook is Welsh and the English translation has to be sought out...
And now Ryan Reynolds is at it

Squirrel (early morning light) was fixed on something, didn't explore any further:
No zooms yet, so all sightings were distant and needed severe "enhancements".
The solo swan looking maternal ;)
Little Egret flying off:
MC. 1100hrs. A good shot of Grey Heron, Little Egret and Great White Egret for comparison.
