I start this thread with a heavy heart, as Brodie hasn't been seen at all on Friday 30th June. The last fish delivered to the nest was at 21.11 on 28 June, over 48 hours ago. Brodie was last sighted at 09.10 hours on 29 June, over 36 hours ago.
Chick 1 hatched 'early morning' on the 4 June and chick 2 overnight on 6 June. One egg didn't hatch (maybe number 1?). There were lots of intruders during the month of June, including KL5, and last year's male Axel on the weekend of 17/18th. Brodie has disappeared before for a couple of days, and no fish were delivered over the first weekend after hatching on 10/11th June so maybe we should keep the faith and cross all eyes, toes and fingers that Brodie will come good, recover from whatever keeps him away from his nest and chicks, and deliver a stonking fish first thing on 1 July.

You might have known I'd come in and duplicate you, dear KORKY! I'm lucky you don't take offence (apparently )

The PTZ is having a look around to try to find who/what Asha is shouting at - it had stayed zoomed in too close for too long.
Looks like Brodie's out there eating a fish, he's too distant for a snap.
Oh all right, see what I mean?
EDIT
Hang on!
He (whoever he was) finished eating and feaked, I didn't see any visit to the nest:
Asha is feeding chicks so I need to check back but am going to start from scratch.
