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.

She's just returned with a stick to replace the one the team removed!!
11.21 a swipe of the tail moves another stick or two on the near rim from the left to the middle
11.24 and another!
Well, wouldn't you?

You impress me every day, KORKY, is there no end to your talents?
After suffering appalling seize-ups and 2 Windows Updates, I've been trying and trying to record the moment Asha flew to the perch - but I think it must have been in a buffer or freeze cos I cannot do it! Well that was on the nest cam, got her on the PTZ...
However, in the midst of me video and I can't carry on, need desperately to pack up. SYAL !!!
(PS - I hope they deducted some grams at weighing time for the full crops.)

Asha is calling. Whether in anticipation or telling Brodie to go fishing I'm not sure. 11.41 she called and took off - and back with another stick for the front rim. Can she really realise there is a difference to the layout?!

''Poor #2 just cowered from the start, as #1 glared and dared it to line up for the feed. #1 had its back to Asha and #1.''''14.49 for no reason at all #1 had a go at #2, getting it by the neck again. #1 turned back to Asha and continued to take fish.''
