Someone brought in lovely fresh greenery and it's confused our birdies' heads, never mind:
IMAGICAT
Oh dear oh dear. You'd think he'd learn his lesson , although it was CJ7 that got rid of the original lot. ( holds head in hand and closes eyes as plastic covers Osplets with no baby warning about suffocation )
They're growing up fast!

Now the nest site is public, I can share these photos of the nest taken from the viewing platform with a long zoom. The bigger camera on the left gives the landscape view, and the one on the right the aerial view. You can see the perch behind the landscape camera that the adults often use.
How super ! Thank you so much Alison - and I didn't know until today that the nest is now public so another thank you for the info
There has been an unringed, probably female, intruder causing problems at the nest this afternoon. CJ7 and 022 had a long aerial battle with her before seeing her off.
Also a lovely chick close-up from earlier in the day.
Those glorious amber eyes ! Thanks Alison
