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.

Headless tiddler:
21:00 - All the LG cams went into buffer mode so I switched them off...and naturally have forgotten all about them until now. Checking back, Asha had flown over to the dead tree-tip and back to the campost @ 19:09, she may still be there ???
Evidence
Have just checked with Chat and see no further fish reported.

Latest video from LG 'Night-time visitors, odd fishing choices and drizzly weather were the main themes of the week. Here is the weekly recap from the best of the nest.
