Link to July 2023 thread
July proved to be a less nail-biting month than June. Brodie re-appeared early on the 1st and delivered fish (including flounder) to the nest every day bar 1 thereafter, with a record count of 7 on the 21st. Asha also fished and delivered a salmon on the 3rd, as well as quite a few sticks, not least one to replace the sticky-up stick on the nest that got removed on ringing day - 12th July. We have 2 boys, as only 7% of those surveyed had predicted. 2C5 (oldest) became Sid (Vicious) and 2C4 (youngest) is Harry (Nilsson). We had some cracking snaps particularly from the PTZ camera, a 2am fish, self-feeding started, and wing-flapping and helicoptering. Bets are on for a fledge or two very early in August. Sid is 58 days and Harry 56 days on the 1st of August

EDIT
Brodie was holding the whole fish so daintily

Sid wasn't bovvered when Asha fed Harry:
We've had a intrusion, which Asha was dealing with - but I need to do a replay in a minute, other things to tend to now.

Ah, no need to bother, thanks, SHEILA :)))
I think we've had a fledge but the PTZ is too zoomed in

And me nest cam had completely dropped out so I've had to get it - such as it is, is not! - from rollback. I do hope you will enjoy the video nevertheless
