Wide angle lens fitted

The chicks were ringed last week and Vic took the opportunity to fit a wide angle lens which has vastly improved the visible area on screen.
Of the three chicks ringed, the smallest was the heaviest.

A hot day in the box

It is a hot day and the female has chosen to stay in the box. Usually when the chicks are this old she would roost away as their daytime food begging can get tiresome after a while.
If she continues to roost in the box then the bird ringers will not only have three big chicks to ring soon but also an adult.
