2235h

There are two birds on the front box edge right now.  Checked the recorder and one of them made me a wee bit suspicious.  So went through the recorder and one is McDermot, his antennae is easy to see even in the dark.  He has been around since 2014h napping upright and lying down in his favourite spot next to the nestbox before moving to the box edge.  The second bird turned up on the ledge beside the box and was noticeably larger, and yes, before anyone asks, it is Jubilee.  She landed on the ledge sometime around 2130h then hopped into the nestbox and I could see her tape.  She spent some time nibbling on something before she joined McDermot on the box edge.

So today, we have had all the kids turning up and hanging out on the ledge/box for extended periods of time - first Fleet and Hart, then McDermot joined by Jubilee.  

Good to know Jubilee has been sighted!

Right now it's too dark to see if that's a bird I see in McDermot's favourite napping spot, but I'm definitely seeing the tail feathers of someone on the nestbox edge :)

Thanks for the update, TPC -- although it would be great to see all of them back at the nestbox off and on, at least it's good to see Fleet and Hart back "home".

Just tuned in to see some again, this time on the other side of the nextbox, so couldn't see any leg.  Took off right away...

Looks like Hart on the nestbox edge and someone else - on the ledge? - is screaming.  Hart was screaming as well.  both are quiet now. :)
