Hello Kate
Hi all, aren't we sooo lucky to be able to witness this lovely behaviour?
Hi Wendy, I know allopreening is anything but aggressive, but it always looks like it to me. I'd be worried that a slip of the beak could lead to the loss of an eye!! Ian
They have just mated. Ian
Both in the box at present. Ian
Camera is off-line at the moment. Ian
Still is same Ian!
Dorset Wildlife Trust are aware of the problem. Ian

Update on the webcam. We are sorry, but the camera is down due to a power cut / internet failure. We will try and get it back up and running soon but please bear with us. We hope it will be back working tomorrow.

Camera still down, no surprise as they indicated it might not be back up until Tuesday. Ian
