I know them as Creasing Tiles. Bought from Jewsons Ltd (UK). We added a 2nd layer with a white cement mortar 'sandwich' before putting 'one-third round' ridge tiles on top. The creasing tiles act as a drip lip which helps to keep rain water running down the face of the wall

Wow! Thanks for the ID @Shaman3038. Much appreciated.

Thanks Kaoru. Glad to see that your peregrines are doing well. I hope to live stream for a short while in the next week or so. This pair have 2 eggs now (2nd laid this morning) so I expect incubation to start.

Hi Margaret. Hope to live-stream in a week or so, for a while at least

Hi PJ. Hope all is well with you

Hiya H. I hope to be able to live-stream before too long.

Hi PJ. I'm afraid that I cannot live stream at the moment but was pleased to see that the hogcam caught this clip. Hope you have a successful year with your tawnies.

Hi @owlmazzing and thanks. Sorry Im not able to live stream at the moment but hope to be back on line with our swifts before too long.

I really don't know @siouxiet4525 I'm afraid. I have problems with the camera system and it looks like I need access to the nest box area to fix it. I cannot do that while the tawny is in residence of course. Very frustrating. Sorry

Thanks Steve. This brought my doubts about the ID if the male/female to a head. Facial feather colouring suggests the ringed bird is male but this and other stuff suggests otherwise. Every day a school day with wildlife.

I’ve not heard of sexing tawny by color before, I have heard of in barn owls however . Female barn owls are generally darker with darker face fringe

Yes, that is a possibility @baddnurse5443. If so, the generally accepted difference in facial disc feather colouring of tawny owls can no longer indicate gender with any certainty. Its been a real puzzle for me. Every day is a school day.

Thank you David for the kind response. I wasn’t aware of the tawny facial disc dimorphism. I watch another box where the male has the darker face markings as well while the females face is grey . This is very interesting ❤ Hoping for a successful breeding season this year 🤞 Best of luck

Its in the cooking pot H - but not the same one as the Bolognese. Hope to get it to you soonish. Loving your meme BTW. Very edible. I assume you teach at the art classes. :)

Its going to be a long short btw

Yes, we think so too Diane. See you soon I hope

The best time is from dawn to dusk @faskr1927. Don't play it at night. The swifts will not come to the nest box then. I suspect any neighbours you have wouldn't appreciate it either.

It was a Great Tit @TIGGY. I suspect it want 100% fit to be caught during the day.

And then she flew off again. It was the first time they have been together since last season. I will stream when they both return - and try to clean the cameras in the meantime :)

@@DaveGWIS thank you David, exciting!

So lovely to see you back David! Happy New Year and will look forward to seeing these two back too! 😊

@@pjneilson46 Thanks, and a Happy New Year to you too Pauline. Fingers crossed that your tawny owls have another successful season on 2024
