No pictures I'm afraid. I got near the nest by the river this morning and spooked a heron. It's quite a hemmed in spot and the pterodactyl like Heron was chased away by an adult sparrowhawk, screeching like a terrified Raven. I got closer and the nest is a mass of discarded white feathers, two young fledglings fled but the runt stayed, pirched on branch. The young are now able to fly but still returning to the nest and being brought food, being taught to hunt, they are nearly full size. Very exciting time and a real treat to see.
