In April, 2011, Mom, the unbanded female at this nest for at least several years, disappeared while there were 4 eggs in the nest. Dad incubated the eggs faithfully for a while, then gave up on them. A new female, Dot, showed up at the nestbox while the cam was off, & we are waiting to see if her mate is actually Dad, but there is some doubt about that.
