Logged on to catch up from yesterday morning, but no thread started. So What will today bring!
Not had time yet to read yesterdays DU to find out if EJ was still around, but according to the BLOG @ 2.35 pm all 4 were present.
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
We were initially deceived by the shape and colour of the bird when it landed. Sleek-looking and very white!
Then there were anomalies:
Here is the whole sequence: EJ's landing, start of skydance, EJ's departure, Breagh's arrival, skydance continues, leg-pulling fish "handover" ;-)
IMAGICAT
Just catching up, super sequence Scylla. I thought Odin at first until it came onto the nest more and EJ was revealed. Odin brought in the fish, what a brute he was, tugging at Odin's leg - finally sorted it out and got his fish. Oh my!
Thanks for all updates etc.

Thanks for solving the mystery of how Odin could sky dance and be on the nest at the same time, Scylla! I went back to edit my post and discovered the useful 'strikethrough' option!
Tiger and Chloe's Osprey Info
I can only take credit for consulting because I knew it didn't make sense. I was uncomfortable all along with it being Odin but didn't think of EJ.
Well, guess who's gonna say it wasn't EJ and must have been another male Odin look-a-like ;-) This shot posted by CC at 7:06 pm shows no hint of a ring....
And would EJ poo from the nest and fly off when Breagh approaches? Watch CC's video 7:29pm
All very mysterious. Hope it can be clarified tomorrow if the VC comments..
