Some observations about the usurped choughs' nest.
 
Firstly, now that Anthony has said where it is, I recall seeing choughs actively working the nest early this season.  Both choughs and mudlarks were regularly visiting the pond to the south-east and returning with material.
 
Secondly, referring to re-use, during the blitz this year, I revisited where I had seen a choughs' nest last year, and it was still there with a resident chough sitting on it.
