Happy New Year everyone!
Great start with lovely captures of our pair ... but mighty strange about that 'third' one ... maybe a late 'first footer' Lol!
Good to have some colour Scylla, hope you are continuing to improve!
Gales seem to be a bit of a fixture just lately, another blow overnight promised here, stay safe all!

19:09 There was a bit of a set-to in the barn involving Mrs CBO and another BO. Talons were shown mid-air, lots of screeching, before both flew downwards. Everything happened so quick I was unable to get any decent scaps :(
Mrs in defensive mode, the other one had flown
19:19 After having an EB, one appeared
20:21 It left the barn
19.36 still as your last scap.
Ooh!! fistycuffs then Wonder if that was the other young female we had bagging the bax a few weeks back?Now Mrs making her stand of authority.
Could have been, Kate. Perhaps she's after our Mister too!
21:04 A very brief visit, left almost immediately
23:55 No more activity seen or heard though it does sound like there is water dripping into a bucket of water on the odd occasion.
EN and Barn
Morning Kate :)
7:39 Mister arrived on the tray. Went into the box at 7:42
7:55 Mister is making some soft trilling calls, I wonder if Mrs CBO is nearby? Barn empty at the moment
8:09 And here she is
19:35 Mrs CBO in the box, Mister on the back beam
19:50 Mister flew to the front beam then the tray. Some soft trilling from Mrs CBO who had a stretch before meeting up with him on the tray
19;39 Mr on TrayMrs in box but stretched prior to joining(My finger got stoooook so I missed her coming out. Doh!
Your two scaps were as they had been since late afternoon.
19.52 on the move to beams
19;59 both gone whilst I was posting.
19:55 Both gone now, Kate. I had a very blurred shot of her leaving the box :(
20:35 One on the back beam
20:50 Both on the back beam
20:54
20:55 Back to one on the beam
21:18 Mrs CBO flew to the middle beam
21:38 She left
21:39 Back in again and then went straight away
21:50 Here she is again and flew to the back beam
22:04 There were a couple of loud screeches, looks like Mrs sidled over to the left, and then there were two
22:12 Mrs, on the left, flew downwards towards the right in the barn
22:23 There were a few loud screeches close to the barn. Still just the one on the back beam
23:56 It's still there. Goodnight
Thanks Sandra
