We knew we had not seen Rosie and Jim for a little while and wondered if the season had come upon them. As we cruised up to Hilmorton Locks, we saw Jim gliding by then came across Rosie, high atop the nest they built. She had either just laid or was gearing up to lay the new generation from this dedicated couple. What a wonder to see the serious nest amongst the privacy of the reed bed.
