Thanks, Alan, Hope this pair settle down and have a successful nest. Or might the original female rest up and return in a day or two and attempt a comeback? Just thinking of the Ospreys at the Dyfi estuary nest. Several years ago the female there had 3 fights, each two days apart, with another female who tried to claim the nest and she won her nest back from the intruding female.

So who was this I captured very early in the saga (posted 4.58)

Like is for your captures D ... not the new situation ... will take me a while to accept it ... if ever ... certainly not as quickly as the fickle male!! By

But Mrs P was just about to lay that first egg ... what a waste!

The new female?

Just tweeted some close- up footage ... she doesn't look well, damaged beak, mucky eye?? Can't be our Mr P's egg surely?

Is the original female still in the area?

Haven't seen any comments myself D but have been looking back over recent footage to check who's who ... no firm conclusions but feel that this new female may have been here before the battle the other day!
