Thanks Ryu, yeah I think this is a 're-lay', second attempt. There was a nest in Spring but its branch fell off in the ferocious Spring winds we had, and the two chicks died in the fall (I was gutted). I've just bumped into this new bunch, not too far from the first nest, so its good to see them pulling through at last.

Ah ok. Yes it's great to see them persevere and succeed.
