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!
2013 photos & vids here

Awful gales & lashing rain yesterday has Colin sheltering by nesthole ... only pics through double-glazed window
Stayed for quite some time but didn't catch him flying off!
Another blow tomorrow forecast but then possibly some dryer better days!

Knew you'd appreciate that Tony!
Lot to learn
A very much warmer, brighter day, a tad windy still, sees Colin bring prey to TP ... much better than his smash'n'grab raid on our garden two days ago when he took an unidentified bird, must have been desperately hungry during Storm Alex!
Woodie is quite taken with Colin's perch atop the TP ... here he is 3 days ago all fluffed up against the cold wind
Again today five minutes after Colin flew (snuck in unnoticed so head chopped off to begin with! Lol)
Colin visited three times today, second time with prey, nice fat crop again
