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:

I'm still uneasy about this partnership. Can anyone assure me Mistle is getting fed regularly ? The Mistle Thrush at Glaslyn is an amazing songster
A lovely ethereal capture Scylla, thank you

11.47.55 lying in the cup. Looks very at home!
11.48 something flew over and she stands up.
11.50 she flies off.

Having changed month I have just realised that since 21 April I have had an extra digit in my snips. I have to go back and delete them all! Bother!

Good morning! So happy to hear it, such a sentimental sop as I am.

12.14 Beautiful song bird on the mic. Any id?
Edit: redstart??
Is this not Radio Chaffinch? It just flew up to the cam and is singing into the mic!
EDIT: Is it redstart? I am rubbish with bird ID. Okay, I need to go check UK bird songs now.
I don't think it's quite 'chaffinch'. I'll stick to redstart. We know there are plenty around - Scylla has become an expert at this! Geemeff?
No chaffinches. We have a redstart but I think it doesn't look like what I posted. Going to look up!@ Sheila Your link looks and sounds like the bird that was on the perch.
