So it is *looking* like this is all UT, and I have been essentially waiting for the cr***y nights to make him OT enough to sleep on the shorter A's  . This has always been my downfall with J - always the same UT/OT loops.
This is what I think....  So much emphasis on the not getting OT that all these LOs end up with UT issues!!  ;D

So what's the plan for today and tonight?

One of the most common BWer traps really. Certainly on the EASY board.

Plan is 6hrs A - aim for 2 hr nap and then see.

There are some lovely trees just down the road that has vacant branches  :P

And there is no nest at all yet so I think they are just using my central heating without contribution ATM. I would have let then stay if they had eggs or baby birds - temporary rafter rental.

Napped for 2 hrs so set up for bedtime but it will be a little late  :-\. We will see.

Aww bless.  Little birds.  But yeah they can do lots of damage and really should be off doing their own thing not creeping into houses.

Good luck with bedtime!  I agree it's weird that he would be running off to bed if he wasn't tired, but maybe it's just body clock thing that needs a reset?
