Not sure what's going on... but Springwatch showed both Jackdaw nestboxes briefly and the single chick and the two chicks looked ok [ and big ].

I WAS eating when they showed the regurgitating gulls. Regret getting a HD tv now.

Thanks for the warning about the gulls... watching now.

ETA: At least Iolo apologised.

Look what I got you kids.. bleeuuurgghhh... a ham sandwhich ! 

Could be worse... last week I saw a gull dragging a dead bird across the road, only to fly off with it once the jackdaws started to pay too much attention.

Did you? Wow, good spot. Didn't know Gulls ate carrion. 

Aww no more Springwatch  Didn't enjoy the butterfly/moth section though - I'm a little bit phobic 

Neither did I... but come to think of it, they eat everything else.

I don't care how many colours they put on their wings... bugs are bugs. I know everything is important to the ecosystem... but, do they have to be so icky?

I will miss it... Autumn is so far off.

Me too. Wish there was a Summerwatch - and a Winterwatch for that matter.

In other news our Da is being transferred to the hospice today. 

There was a Winterwatch... it was just a lot shorter.

Great news, at least you know he'll get the proper care now.

Yes hopefully.

I miss the little chicky chicks... been looking at kitten and doggy videos on Youtube. No substitute 

I miss the chicks too... and Iolo and Martin... and the bunnies...

I wonder how that mallard is getting along, I hope her eggs'll hatch.

Hopefully they will.

There are some nestcam links on The Summer of Wildlife site - Ospreys, Kestrels and Peregrines. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007qgm3 

No Martincam unfortunately 

Excellent. I'll check them out.

Glad to be of service 

As far as I know they do a 'watch' for each season except summer.

They should leave the 'Nest and nestlings' cam on until all the chicks have fledged - even if they're not doing anymore actual programmes.

Mind you, I suppose 'Summer of Wildlife' is tantamout to a 'Summerwatch'.

I suppose so, yeah. I agree about the nest cams.

I can hardly remember Winterwatch...  must've been distracted. 

Can't see much on, tv-wise for Summer of Wildlife?

Indeed, if only they'd left the webcams on until the fledging was over.

Yeah, the first year it was only a day, but the second was on a week.

Ahhh yes its coming back to me now  Jeeez I'm starting to dote 

Are you watching The Returned on C4 Hitch? Its spooky.

Don't worry about starting to dote, I tend to forget what I'm talking about half way through a word.

I'm not... not really keen on zombies (says the girl that watches Game of Thrones, which has zombies), unless they are Reg Shoe. I know they don't act zombie-ish... but still.

My parents brought me a present (or two, there's a flag too) from Wales. A little red dragon, guess what I've called him?  *obvious Colette, is obvious*
