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

Cirrus - I agree! I think it is just a wood pigeon. A stock dove hasn't got the white patch

Unmistakable Wood pigeon
On PTZ JUST FOUND wate for it. The forward hide
30 August 06:02 - I hope this was a Mistle Thrush because that's the only reason I've spent an hour trying to make it visible and audible (teeny-weeny peeps every now 'n again). It was such a dim morning, what with lens being dirty too.
You may know different but that's the only birdie I've found all day
