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.

I was too late, Mike - thanks for the lovely shot!
Three men (mostly only 2 seen) seemed to be up to mischief on the river bank, but when I cropped it they were possibly just ice-breaking - was there someone under the ice they wanted to free?
Snaps for albums ;)

The cam went down at about 21:20.
I got very little daycam and what there was was very dull and misty.
Just now I scrolled back thru 10+ on YouTube but it was all nightcam - I was hoping to find a better tree than the one I'd found in my Glaslyn download. Hey ho.
And a very merry and good Christmas weekend to everyone, Scylla, Mike, Catlady, SunnyKate Sheila , Richard and Gardenbirdier and CC know I've missed out several , please forgive me
