On the first occasion Mum made her presence known without needing to get too near and it went away.  The second time both Mum and Dad sent it off on its way!!

Chicks are doing well and like to go walk-about out of the nest now so keep watching the camera!!

Many thanks to David for the information.

Here is Graham’s picture of the chicks - as you can see they still have blood on their geeks as they have just fed.

IT IS NOT YOUR INTERNET WHICH IS AT FAULT!!

The RSPB have been informed and all will be restored soon we hope.
