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.

A glance at the live stream shows a feed going on, checked Chat and found:

Canuck, yes if you have to enlarge it, the resolution goes down, so it will look fuzzy. I wanted to reply earlier but I was on the road and almost lost my iPad!
If you have snapped a pic that is larger, have downloaded it onto your device to,upload, and it needs to be reduced for uploading, I find that putting 640 pixels for width and leaving the height blank in the rich text format block gives a good algorithm for a picture without sharpening. I believe this is what you should do since when I click on the photo you’ve uploaded, it views clearly, not fuzzy. Otherwise, when you just let it be however big it is without adjusting the photo width, the default algorithm results in a fuzzy pic.
You were headed that way, so maybe you’ve given up, or maybe you will try once more.

Dang, I just wasted my time going back thru Chat to get some clues - it doesn't go far back enough - and here's CANUCK with all the req'd info
Glitches on the PTZ cam:

FISH !!!
But not a good view on the PTZ
Not much better from the nest cam, he seemed to be holding it curled up:
Another point about snaps (following CC's chip-in ) ... My pics don't enlarge/clarify when clicked cos I don't upload them in the box, I slide them in from Windows Explorer. We should remember to click on snaps (not mine) cos they do look much better!
FISH !!! !!! !!!
EDIT
See the difference!
This is a leftover from yesterday:
From Chat - I hdn't noticed Sid limping - and they always look crippled trying to walk on sticks anyway:
I'm off again, SYAL.
Love your tartan border Scylla - bet that took you more than a few minutes to sort out.
