Birder's Bonus 26

I have decided to try to record the eggs on the Herring gull nest approximately every 2 days. This is done without unduly disturbing the sitting bird who returns immediately to the nest when I withdraw. No sign of pipping by 19th June. By June 23rd, things are looking down as one egg appears damaged. Removed by the birds (?) on 24th of June. By 29th June, the nest was abandoned.
