The Glaslyn female has just laid her first egg at 19:25.

CU2 is currently on the nest with the Glaslyn female. They seem quite comfortable with one another. The egg has not been covered in the last 30mins and possibly much longer. It has been a cold night and is still cold at the protection site. No one can know if the egg has been fertilised or not. If these two birds are to bond, which we hope they will, it is highly likely that CU2 will remove the egg from the nest. If so there is still time for them to mate, lay more eggs and raise a family, if left alone by Blue 80.

The egg has been removed from the nest. Both birds had been in a nearby tree behind the nest 15mins ago. Until we look at the recordings after 10am we will not know which bird removed the egg but it is believed to be CU2. They have now returned to the nest and the Glaslyn female is calling all the time. Let's hope he gets the message and goes fishing.
and now
Wonderful news, CU2 has just presented the Glaslyn female with a fish. She has taken it to eat. We very much hope this is the beginning of a closer bond between the two birds.
latest newsMrs Glaslyn the Magician!
We have had time to go through the footage of the disappearing egg from early this morning. Initially we thought that CU2 may have removed the egg from the nest but all is not as it seemed!
A quick sleight of hand (or talon) from the female. Blink and you'll miss it!
