. At the moment we are watching the cameras (3 on the west side, 2 on the east) and constantly checking the recordings to make sure we know what (if anything) is going on where.

If anything untoward was going on, is there anything you could do to intervene or would you just have to stand by and watch and leave nature to take its course (in spite of having 5 cameras)?

Does Princess spend any time at the nestbox, defending or otherwise?
Or, are her maternal instincts narrowing her focus to protect only the current nesting site?

Not quite yet, we are a bit leery of disturbing Ivy so close to hatching since he spends much of hist time keeping an eye on the Princess, the nestledge, the nestbox and the rest of the immediate territory around the nestsite. At the moment we are watching the cameras (3 on the west side, 2 on the east) and constantly checking the recordings to make sure we know what (if anything) is going on where.

Too bad, it's a waste of the best nesting site in town - but not much else TPC can do I guess, we don't want a war going on! ::) - Hope Cowboy & Joli find a good site for themselves! 8)

Early this morning, two birds on the box for only a minute and then gone. It really could only be Joli and Cowboy but no way to tell in the gloom pre-dawn.
We are likely going to block off the nestbox to prevent Cowboy and Joli from seriously considering this site ...
