Bea arrived yesterday, January 28th at 12:39. 2016 marks the
sixth year that this pair has made the nest, atop our communications tower,
their home. There are never guarantees with wildlife, so the fact that both
Jasper and Bea have returned safely is great news.
The pair will most likely begin their courtship and mating
can begin at almost any time. Their time
will also be spent repairing the nest. Jasper has already begun bringing in sticks
and moss and with Bea’s arrival the nest should come together quickly.

Lovely day @ the nest - looks like around 70!
First egg last year was 3/2, might we be earlier
this year :) since Bea and Jasper arrived early.

Hey Beth,
The pair has begun mating so it is possible to have an earlier date than last year for the arrival of the first egg.
Many thanks for the closeups this am (!)
Bea has been on the nest a lot - eggs soon ❤️
