Morning Wendy
Like you still cannot accurately ID the angle of the Cam foreshortens so cannot compare markings and size this might assist
re 18th Vid
you say
notice how careful I was not to mention who was who ... still trying to work it out!! Lol. Be easier when they get together more frequently ... need to do some more comparison shots!
I will post Nicks comments which would appear to confirm my earlier quote that it is the Teircel calling and runs into scrape first,
...
Another sequence, also brilliantly captured by webcam watcher Wendy Bartter, shows clearly that courtship on the nest is still going well. At 2am on Feb 18th, Wendy captured this sequence of 'ee-chupping'. The smaller tiercel (male) flies in first, and moves over to the nest scrape. At 2 min 30 sec the larger falcon (female) flies in from where they ee-chupp away to one another. At 3 min 30 sec into the clip he then flies off, leaving her alone on the platform.

Thanks Kate ... sooo pleased to see these two this morning, think that the ID's are more straightforward in the daylight ...
So glad you saw them I have not caught a glimpse all day.
re Brightness I wondered f the white sheet may deflect light up ( thinking here like photographers do)
Yay!!! chubby Mummy ??
Don't let her hear you saying that Kate, she might flounce off in a huff! Lol
I do wonder why they need to leave lights on Kate, that made me ask if they are working all hours, did hear some random bangings through the night but not a great deal!
