With all sites now fledged I can report a good year for Ramsey chough, bucking the trend of the mainland it would seem. 17 young from 7 nests (2.43 per pair) is the joint 3rd highest productivity on record. Of the 7 nests, 6 produced young (ranging from broods of 2 to 4) with only 1 failure.
Looks like a much needed drop of rain is on the way to allow these young birds access to the currently baked hard soil.
