Is the date correct? May seems like an odd time of the year for nesting and another member has reported it in the same location this year

Yeah date is incorrect on second photo, lead photo taken yesterday with correct date, but the wrong date of second photo has somehow been applied to both photos...

I have changed the sighting date to yesterday

Thanks Ryu, much appreciated

No worries. I have 2 chicks in my local nest as well, but they both still fit snugly under their parent during the day time
