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

TREVOR said - Scylla mite know...
and:
they don't tell us anything, which is just what Scylla was thinking
IMAGICAT
Both of the Ravens showed up before shut-down - no rollback available to get sound or other views from, even if it wuz glitch-free.
Talking of which (glitches) - I forgot to caption the glitched disappearance of the second Raven!)
Many thanks for the lovely Ravens Scylla ... 'til next season then!
Well, the season has finished as it started ....... with not a word from LG. I really don't have words. Still, perhaps they had a thrilling time of flogging lots and lots of lovely memberships to LG's physical visitors. Sod the online ones.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

Great stills, TREVOR!
An online birder has told me it was a GOSHAWK
Our adults were greyer, I thought - could this have been a juvie?

They've always been slanted that way, in my short experience - but this season has been abysmal for us RSPB LG onliners
And so say all of us
