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

That was too small to catch my eye so it will have to wait till I do a scroll-thru - this Raven, on the other hand... I could swear it flies off with something in its beak

Thanks for those heads-ups, TREVOR
I missed this a couple of minutes before the Raven bounced - maybe it was the same bird sailing by, or could it have been a raptor? I think the former:
That's it from me up until now.
Extraordinary ! I would have liked to have to watched that Raven on YouTube so I could have full screened it . Darn these wretched way out of date notifications on the right obscuring the link to YouTube.
sadly I couldn't see the spotty breasts of the Mistle Thurshes but I accept you and Trevor's ID. Thank you Scylla
