    Wed 27 April

Our female occupant, sitting on her 10 eggs, receives a feed from her mate.

For both of the last two years, the 10th egg was laid on 18 April & the first chick hatched on 29 April, so the first one this year should be on Thursday (28th), if the timing is the same!
 
       

       
 

    Sun 17 April

Now ten eggs.....

Curious; at one a day, she should have only nine by now!

    Sat 9 April

Our occupant checks her first egg on arriving back at the nest box - hopefully more to follow..

Both birds have been in & out during the afternoon dropping off extra nest material.
