So are you saying that they have not chosen a nestbox, TPC, not the newer one or the older one? ???
Linder:
Well it is unfortunate that they didn't chose last years site. What actually binds them to a site? Last year they had a successful hatch, the year before a site that sounds similar to this year and wasn't good news. I know this switching has happened with the the Radisson birds from one side of the building to the other, but what is driving this pair?

Sorry, multitasking at the time. Don't think the other pairs are a problem as they are even further away from the WW birds than they are from the Radisson ones. Beau and Jules are twitchy by nature though they are better. They have moved their nestsite this year it looks like and the spot they have chosen is far from optimal and I suspect that is what is making them stupid, well more stupid, about nesting. She was the same kind of twitchy in 2009. In 2010, despite being the first bird back and getting a new man quickly, it too these two forever to nest. Last year they laid between May 8-14th, so they aren't late just annoying :)
