Pete, I echo what others say about your photographs. They are sensational. The first one especially has such depth it almost looks as if I could reach in and touch it. Thanks for your comments about the thread. It's a joint effort and I think we both love sharing what we are so privileged to see.

Wishing everyone a a safe and happy 2011.

It's been far too hot to go to the nest recently, but yesterday was quite pleasant and very windy. We're heading into another heatwave so I don't think either Pete or myself will be back there for a few days. Whopper was on exactly the same part of the same branch in a tree in front of Madame X's place that both Aussie and Harmony favoured after fledging. She did an occasional bit of calling, but otherwise there was little action. Big Hook was in another tree, but I haven't seen Dad for a couple of weeks.
