Not really surprising, the nestbox is foul!!!  When it dries out a bit I think I might try to bribe Dennis into joining me to clean out the nestbox so the adults can enjoy it for a couple of months before they head south.  Once they have left we are going to change out the gravel entirely.

Cleaning out the nestbox sounds like a great plan!

Princess being much more dignified as she poops off the front onto … ;D

Have moved the skycam onto the nestbox again even though someone may visit the ledge - I can see the ledge from our ledge-cam, but I can't identify any of the birds at the box unless I'm zoomed in.

That's okay with me even though I'm the one who asked you to change the view, and I agree it's better to focus on the nestbox awhile; I also understand the cam won’t be up much longer …
