Honestly - I was up by 5.30 a.m. - but when did I leave the house?
At 6.50 a.m.!
Awww....
It is well-known that the more time one thinks one's got, the later one arrives where one needs to be!
It was again mild and dry, with watery sunshine. No raven calls when I got to the big field - but as I reached the middle, the quarry pair turned up. It seemed to me they were keen to get some food before the other lot arrived, and they did not call.
However, I could see one of the young pair sitting on the top branch in a tree in the spinney - he was observing, and came down when I walked up to the enclosure. Then his companion arrived as well.
