- 25th MARCH: TELYN arrived 19:29
- 30th MARCH: IDRIS arrived 09:49
Telyn beats her previous record (2021) by one day while Idris matched his earliest arrival time he set in 2023.
This is Telyn's seventh year at the Dyfi and Idris' fifth.
By now they are an established pair which could explain their respective punctual return. We would eggspect the first egg to be laid at around 10th April onwards.
The short video of Telyn arriving in the dark is here, whilst below is the video of Idris returning yesterday. As often happens, Idris brought another male with him to the nest, which confused all of us for a while, including Telyn!
He was a ringed bird too - he's visited before...
