New male who I've named Colin gave us a miss over Xmas & New Year's day so was very pleased to see him this afternoon, giving me a reason to start new thread in the hope there's some romance this year!
Grim & grey day here so light was bad for pics @ almost 15.00
Resolution in vid was a great improvement ... he looks almost too pretty to be a boy!! Trademark ending though ... start as you mean to go on!

I've just been looking at her glowing in the doorway, SWEETWING :)
Had quite a bit of trouble with the streams dropping out, I just took a couple of snaps but not from today.

I've been collecting up "curious jackdaws" ;)
Talon on the cam:

"Mrsk just watching & listening":
At last! An eyas who looks like it'll be a kestrel one day ;) (We may get better ones than this, but at that time the cam had just been cleaned after a very long misty time.)
Dad with prey:
This looks very similar prey to SWEETWING's "deliveroo", but it can't be because it never came out again:
I wonder why she decided to perch clear of the entrance on that night?
Some more indoor shots with clean lens:
Don't mention the frame
I'm giving up frames for the duration (that is, till the next time):
Having a good look before taking off:
If you haven't got 40 seconds to watch a video, here's the gist:
Next time (MrsK's tail can just be seen):
Camera just got cleaned.
