This is an emergency back-up for keeping notes when the HWF forum is down. I'm afraid you can't attach pictures here - but will be able to add them once the forum is back and we've posted a summary of what happened while it was down.

And I'm very much hoping we won't need to use this - but setting it up just in case.

10:32 am
One adult at Mom's perch by river - probably Mom
Other adult coming and going (and being blown around a bit - very windy) - guessing that's Dad putting the finishing touches on the nest.
