Azina and Odin are still visiting the nest ledge every day (they even used the nest box to stash and eat food during the last storms) and are doing courtship displays most days. Here is a long one from yesterday morning.
Azina brought in a Woodcock this morning, at 8:25. It would have been passing over on migration, maybe at night. Unfortunately Azina was at the other end of the ledge so I can't tell if she brought it fresh or from a cache. She ate some of it, then Odin.
A few shots of Azina and Odin from the last few days. They appear to be doing well and to get on well.
Courtship display in the box this morning. Odin was on the ledge and managed to get inside the box before Azina. She made him wait a couple of minutes but it was worth it!

The Bath Peregrines female of 13 years was euthanized on Sunday 20th. She was severely injured in a territorial battle with an intruder that has now moved in on the site. Official statement by @Hawkandowluk will follow. New female seen here 'introducing' herself to the male.
Aren't they so sweet? Odin (by the wall) and Azina on the ledge this morning.
They like spending time on the ledge together.
Odin and Azina were relaxing on the ledge this lunchtime when we had a pretty heavy shower. They both enjoyed it!
Perched together like that on the ledge is something they do from time to time. It rarely happened with Tom.

I am sorry for the silence since ZNT's disappearance. There has been no news since.
Azina and Odin have continued getting to know each other and spending time together. I took this funny short clip yesterday of them on the ledge.
Still no news of ZNT. But things are progressing between Azina and Odin. For the first time today he's joined her in the box for a courtship display. Admittedly it's only at the entrance but it's a start.
No news of ZNT today. Some of us looked in the area she was last in but if she can fly she really could be anywhere. To give an idea of where she was seen, I've taken shots from the zoom camera and marked it with an arrow. She then flew to the right.

ZNT update: She’d actually flown off last night, over the railway tracks, which is why we couldn’t find her. I will put more notices in the area tomorrow, but she could have gone anywhere… She must be rather hungry by now, unless Azina managed to feed her before she left.
This was ZNT last night. I still haven’t found her. I suspect she has been rescued but calls to local vets and rescues have proved unsuccessful so far. People are looking for her locally.
I have had a report of ZNT on Hammersmith Grove! Looking for her now but we can’t find her at the moment.
I haven't been able to find ZNT this morning. And I've looked in a lot of places. I'm going to keep on looking but you can help if you are at the hospital by looking at the lower roofs and on the balconies around the building.
