We are now up and running live on YouTube, so please head on over there where you can see, at the moment, beautiful Augusta sitting patiently on the nest in the sunshine (so saying, Samson has just taken over and Augusta is going “sticking”). Thank you for your patience as I jumped the gun a little last week for which I received a deserved smack on the head from Jain, my techie lady.
For identification purposes, as well as Augusta being ringed 500, she also has the darker head feathers with almost a complete line from the top down the back of her head, with a small dot on either side at the top. From the front, she has far heavier forehead markings with distinct “frown” lines. Samson has an altogether whiter head, with a distinct break in the line at the back and far lighter forehead markings. He loves to incubate and is always more than ready when he can persuade Augusta to get up from the nest!
I hope you enjoy watching. I have disabled the chat for the present.

Bother, I got it wrong. Sigh. I’m looking at Augusta.

It’s far easier when they’re together as he looks like a bit that’s dropped off her although the wide angle lens can be misleading!

Terrific ! Many thanks Rosie – just going to check the ID ah, so I’m looking at Samson. Turning the eggs I think. And quite a view ! The camera is excellent . Thank you so much for The Blog.
