Flycatchers

Neither pair of Spotted Flycatchers in my garden have had a second brood this year. Is it because they were so late arriving or because of the cold weather or both?

One pair built a new nest next to their old one, both visited on and off for a fortnight but no longer. They are still about with an occasional sighting of a juvenile.

Has anyone else seen second broods or nestings?
