2977	799	16/9/2012	13	Most nests still from the previous season, but some activity in building new ones
3058	799	24/9/2012	13	A lot of activity from males flying to nearby reed beds and dry grass tufts to collect material, also stripping leaves from the willow tree. Difficult to count the exact number of nests, appears to be still at 13. Cannot get closer to the tree which is on an island in a small dam
3200	799	6/10/2012	28	Much more activity this week
