Hi everyone,

I notice that compared to this time last year, both occupants of the nest have already arrived. While they may be already behind schedule, when can it be said that they may be too late for breeding season.

On an unrelated note, I wish the camera this season has night vision as well. I notice that all kinds of things happen at night. We may be missing out.

[Liz01]

Well, it's been a dry winter. So dry that they may decide they can't breed here.
When they return, both partners explore the area to see whether the area offers sufficient food sources. If the ditches are already empty, they won't breed.

I think,It's too late if the food supply can't be exploited in the spring.

BTW: I don't need an infrared camera. There are hardly any members who document anything. And I personally sleep at night. Over the years, I've become accustomed to interpreting what I hear at night. That makes it exciting.
