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
Asha was on the perch for well over an hour on the occasion that SHEILA reported it.
Typcal that the very time I decide to get a chick pic #2 decides to play shrinking violet - but very briefly it came into view and put its "arm" around its sibling:
It sounds gusty and the sky isn't looking very nice.

Thank you, CAKEBOYSLIM !!! Especially welcome guidance this morning as my downloader crashed while I was inoperative and I've got nothing besides the PTZ screen-capture - grainy - but a super fish!
EDIT - Hmm, I don't think the white trail is part of the fish, so it's not as long as it looks at first glance.
EDIT
Recorded from rollback but the light was bad and the fish at the wrong angle to show off fully:
Good morning all, I tuned in to see a fish delivery at 13.26! Before she had finished with the other fish. She took the fresh one and continued feeding chicks from it!
