Unlike the nestbox at the Radisson where the afternoons are the warmest part of the day, the configuration of this box means that the by noon, most of the West Wpg nestbox will be shady and it is protected on 3 sides from the wind - which is good for the chicks because this is a very windy site. Looks like Beatrix was on all night, Beau came in at 0615h and then she returned to sit on the wall beside him for an hour before she pushed him out again at 0738h just as the rising sun was starting to fill the nestbox. It's 1055h now and where the eggs are is mostly out of the sun and she is standing over the eggs having a bit of a preen. It's starting to cloudy over too, so not so much direct sunlight into the box.
