I think he is improving his incubating skills ... slowly

My pic from early this morning - but not early enough to show the laying, dang! ;-)
I'll see if I've got video of the proud but incompetent dad with his eggs.
IMAGICAT
I think it's him! I think he has learnt to cover the eggs completely! Good daddy! But let's wait to see the ring/no ring though.
It's definitely him, NOC - video coming up :-)
Yeyy!! Good boy! Thanks, Scylla. I'm so relieved! I was kind of worried... though it's nice to see how young ospreys learn stuff.
It took him 11 minutes to settle, here's every one of them ;-)
Brilliant, Scylla!! That video is precious, and I've enjoyed every single minute of it. Thank you.
Maya was incubating, then Blue 28 came in for mating, now he is incubating. It takes him a few attempt before he manages to cover the eggs properly, but at least now he knows that staring at them it is NOT enough! :D
I had to attend to something else so here is the return of Maya to take over from Blue28, rather late. He looked shocked when she landed even though he knew she was coming.
He had sat nicely for the few minutes she was gone.
