DAYCAM 0422hr:
Egg-checking:
She showed her face at last:
IMAGICAT
EJ is flattened on eggs, she has alarm-called, Odin has too.
She's not happy.
Birdies LG DU update.
Ej again check the eggs
and she settles back down again - Oh I wonder :-)
Morning everyone! EJ is checking the eggs again, looks like we're getting close now!
Chocoholix shiny new 2018 Interactive Osprey & Chick Chart! (with clickable links!)
Good morning, all - will today be the day, then? I'm really looking forward to watching the events of this week.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
When EJ first returned, the news (Reporting Scotland) reported her arrival and then something about this year we could see the "100th chick" at Loch Garten!!
Does anyone know if there has been anymore said about this?
I wonder if she is feeling at all excited? She has done this so many times:
I just hope they get the right conditions to raise all three chicks successfully this year - assuming all the eggs hatch.

Thanks Clare - I recall some discussion about it but not any confirmation. It just came to mind whilst we await this hatching :)
Who better than EJ and Odin to raise this historic chick?
