Please read Korky's comprehensive March 2024 intro
Asha & Brodie
The partnership has matured this season, with Asha continuing her good female role (and she loves nest-building) and Brodie being more reliable, both fishing and incubating.
The pair have fought their way thru all kinds of nasty weather - snow, wind and rain - and intruders, including the dreaded KL5 Klive, have been a nuisance but not dangerous...
so far.

IMAGICAT
15:53 KL5 on nest alone. Will he approach the eggs?
Been chased off. Not sure if eggs have been damaged
KL5 starting to kick eggs out
Yup. No doubt now about his intentions.
One egg over and think others soon follow
All eggs destroyed
16:12:10 one egg goes overboard
I'm just getting ready to join up all 1 million clips up to just after noon - thought I should check in here first...

O M G... Oh no
So sad and Laddie not returned to LOL either
I am in the middle of trying to continue the summary that I started. Will take a break and then get back to it. Am heartbroken for Asha and Brodie.
