Aran & Elen
After a slightly dodgy start, when Elen went AWOL when she found that Aran hadn't arrived, and he therefore had a brief flirtation with Blue372 (of whom much more in the Llyn Brenig thread), this couple's second season together is turning out to be a great success. Elen has survived the attentions of an aggressive Tawny Owl and has produced 3 eggs, one more than last season, and Aran has continued to be the great provider we are accustomed to.

Right at this very moment they are, WENDY !!! And I am holding my breath
Also at this very moment, Elen is sleeping peacefully - she's probably dead tired from her (reported by Heather) crow-bashing expedition last evening - it was speculated that there may have been human intrusion that set the crows off.
My downloader crashed mid-morning yesterday. and I wasn't able to check it till ???

No peace to eat tea - the corvids won, the Osprey fled:
How resilient is spider's web!
Aran and Elen dealt with an unseen intruder the previous morning, otherwise they're doing well with no concerns.
Your photo of Aran looks like a painting Scylla. Beautiful

She didn't show off the eggs all night, probably because it rained the whole time:
