The Webcam is still down this morning, so no way of knowing what is happening at Loch Garten this morning.
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
Odin flies off appx 10.18 after standing, balanced on some wobbly sticks at the rim, and EJ manages to manouver herself onto the eggs under Odin's bottom. Little clip to follow.
Here's the clip of Odin placing a branchy stick on EJ's back and stumbling around the nest lol bless him
...and the swap over, where EJ has to negotiate Odin's backside. 2 eggs visible.

They are doing so well this year! Just great!
Morning, all :-)
Lovely videos, thank you MIMS!
Aw, MIKE, glad you got in eventually :-(
IMAGICAT
HI SCYLLA et al Good news MIKE
Awww! Doesn't dear EJ look so calm and serene?
Just can't resist a few pics from earlier...
11.00appx EJ gets up and leisurely and carefully rolls the eggs back and forth..back and forth...back and....then a lovely prolongued wing stretch (she seemed to be wondering whether to fly off for a break but decides against it) and eventually settles back down. A lovely view (nice and clear) of the 2 big eggs. They look paler this year. I remember the pink ones last year but could have been the webcam colour lol. A clip to follow which I have shortened a bit.
Mims thank you for the video of Odin plodding around with that big stick, was so funny. Looks like he is determined to build this side of the nest so high we are not going to be able to see into it if he carries on. Odin the adorable! :-)
