Good news Fireblade. Last year the first egg was laid on 2nd. Feb.

The view from the G Vulture cam tonight is pure magic.

Building a nest

[garina do mar]

Hi all

In the nest shown on Fireblade pics there is already an egg since the 12th or 13th January. Nobody saw thee egg as it is hidden by the stone wall but since that day they have "egg behaviour", always a GV on the nest and changing shifts.

Now the cam is pointed for another nest, the one who had a late egg last year and it must be very close to the moment of laying yhe egg: the nest is completed and they mate several times a day. So it can be tonight, or tomorrow...

Hi all
The egg was laid on the 30th January. As the cam is closer it is possible to see it when they change position

Today afternoon, I captured the egg in the upper nest.

Lovely colours in that video. Thank you Lucy.

Macdoum,

Recently, youtube introduced the option of improving the quality of the movies, so I decided to test how it works.

[macdoum]

Lucy,you could put that in Technical Questions,I'm sure everyone would be happy to know.

I do not know when the egg is laid, and how much. I have to read everything.
