Brief history: The nest was first occupied by White 08(97) and Green 5N(04) in 2007 who raised 2 chicks. In 2008 they paired again but the nest failed and in 2009 it was unused. In 2010 a new pair, Green 5R(04) and an unringed female nicknamed Mrs 5R, took up residence and over the next four years raised 11 chicks. Green 5R(04) failed to return in 2014 and Mrs 5R paired with a new mate, Blue 28(10) and laid 3 eggs. Blue 33(11) arrived determined to claim this nest and ousted Blue 28(10). Blue 33(11) kicked out the eggs and spent the remainder of the season bonding with Mrs 5R who was then officially named “Maya”. Since 2015, Maya and Blue 33(11) have paired up each year and to date have successfully raised 26 chicks.

Here’s wishing Maya and Blue 33(11) a safe journey home and for another successful season.
Very pleased to see this thank you.
Not sure what is best LAM but I put 500 in the first box and leave the second blank. But that is just my personal preference :-)
I know Gilder as it was a real pain doing it but was the only way we could sort of make any sense of the order in which things were happening.
Thank you Karen will try that for starters and see how it turns out! Maybe it's different for each appliance used?
I have started to do the same LAM, they come out good, that is using my tablet.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Hi AllMaybe it's me having problems with the new interface..But I seem to be missing the 14:49 fish today, quite a nice whole one..And 33 really disappointed when she got back without any leftovers an hour later

Hello Bart molenaargreat to see you back. ('Scuse me telling Bart this here but...) My Jaksta/Applian is still crashing - different laptop, different OS - go figure!

05:03 - On and off for a quickie:
16:13 Scrolling back, all looking fine here. Both adults on and off the nest, mating attempts and a few sticks but not a great deal of nest building as it is windy nor any fish deliveries.
06:25 33 guarding his domain
07:19 mating
13:37 Maya calling
15:58 still windy as Maya continues to call and 33 ignores her
