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.

EDIT
********
Sadly, the month of May heralded irresistible aggression from BlueKL5 "Klive", who had ruined the end of last season for the 2 juvies.
Within the first 2 days Klive had driven Brodie from the area (tho Brodie did return a couple of times to dive-bomb Klive, to no effect) and destroyed the eggs. He commenced to woo Asha clumsily, selfishly and inappropriately, as can be seen from the following pages.

Really lovely captures Scylla. And I enjoyed the vocal GSW very much. Thank you. (have you checked you gmail emails lately?)
Oh my, your Woodie should come with a warning, I had my sound toooo loud and gave myself a fright when I lept, my poor heart! Lovely though!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Just for the record...

The usual suspects - except for the introductory Wren - I couldn't believe my eyes
The same snaps as in the video but might they look clearer?

Snow on 'n off during the morning, then a GSW and later a Jay (not snappable) - the nest cam is very glitchy indeed.
Snow:
Gosh it looks cold there. Is the winter of 2024-2025 going to be cold?
