Asha is the proud parent of 3 eggs, the father of which being dubious but probably URM - now called Brodie - as we hardly saw NN2 (for whom we wish all the best elsewhere) be accepted by Asha. Brodie had a lot of trouble fending off intruders which has made him a bit flaky in the fish catching and delivery department. Poor old Asha didn't eat for over 2 days last week. The main intruder was KL5, who seems to have stopped hanging around so much now, which is good as we approach hatch date and the need for fish will ramp up.

Also, courtesy of scylla, here are the laying dates;
25 April - egg 1
28 April - egg 2
01 May - egg 3
i can't find any more fish for the 19th. Asha went flyabout @ 21:40 and returned to the campost 13 minutes later, back to the nest after a minute or three.

20 June
After a fairly uneventful night, good morning from the 2 osplets:
A bonking session has just lulled.
Asha has been calling as if she can see Brodie with a fish - but she's flown off and back a couple of times and there's been no sign of Brodie.
I'm packing up for a while.
Good morning all! PTZ view shows a fully reptilian #1 begging.

Ah, there he is, on the old dead tree that to the left of the PTZ camera. He has his back to us, so it's not obvious he has a fish at the moment.
Oh, are you calling?
14.11 he flew off!! and not to the nest!
and Asha continues to wait, with no left over fish lying around the nest, unlike yesterday
No fish since yesterday morning 09:35, reported by CC.
This morning - some sticks from Asha:
Nobody out there:
And then:
So what's been going on out of our sight?!
12.51.37 #1 osplet picks up a stick and helps mummy to rearrange the furniture!! It doesn't show very well in a still snip
