AX6 Axel and his lovely unringed partner Mistle are bonding well, and Mistle has been threatening to lay an egg - we await developments.
It seems that Mistle has been on the perch & nest all night:
IMAGICAT
Axel didn't appear again, despite Mistle's plaintive calls - did she stay the night?

Yes, she did!
Axel's here to mate - and off he's gone, no interest in egg. Vid to follow.
Don't quote me - but I think Axel is incubating, or trying to - can't see very well at the mo but can't hold back, am too excited!
Well he may have been - Mistle is back, he's flown. Dang.
Had to take a meal break, miles behind now.
At the moment they are both on the nest but I only have a small VLC pic on a distant screen. He's not gone fishing, that's for sure.
