Oh look how they've grown!

- It's official... the Ospreys have eggs!
- The Herons have babies, and the rookery is LOUD.
- Those Barn Owl babies don't really look like babies anymore... It's getting crowded!
- We added a chat feature for the Vaux Swift cameras. Don't be surprised though if you spot a crow hanging around outside the chimney. He's named "Bad Bill" for a reason!
