Not unusual to have the first bird back back well in advance of others - last year Hart arrived March 11, Joli on the 19th, Faith on the 22nd and Princess not until the 26th.  In fact, 6 of our breeding birds arrived in April, 6 arrived in March.

Can't quite say it is a slower start to this year, just that we started a few days later than last year.

Welcome home, Hart!

I hope everyone else will also make it home safely, especially Princess.

Saw somebirdie sitting on the west nest this morning at 9:45am - Quite a white breast - who could it be??  ??? ;D

The male we've been watching, who I think might be Hart (his band is messy) has a white breast - so too does Pip from last year but I'm not sure I've seen him back this year yet.  Will check the recorder when I get home if I can and see what I can see.  :)

Anxious to see if Princess returns - I've never followed a season yet without her! -  I know she's getting a bit 'long in the tooth' but she's a tough ol' gal, so hoping she shows up again!  ;D :-*
