User's notes
Resident group of 4 choughs took turns collecting mud to construct this nest 1- 4 August, then were sitting ad hoc till 10 August (perhaps testing comfort?) then sitting constantly since. They reliably nest in one of two trees in this green patch each year. Two young fledged ~2 months apart last season, continued sitting third time but was unsuccesful. Will see what happens this time around.
