What a strange evening we had, with a fish seemingly rejected and Odin having to bring another, and EJ off and back on the nest during a feed - see the end of yesterday's DU for videos and pics.
#3 seems to be going from strength to strength, s/he has learned to be assertive and is getting darker, we won't be able to tell them apart soon! But we know that a day or two of bad fishing weather could change everything.

Just in time - it's begun to rain again. Kids are trying to get tucked underneath the EJ-umbrella.

Ej is back and feeding the chicks. #3 in the middle as usual.
I don't think #3 is interested..He/she didn't look to be reaching up to EJ and has now turned its back to her
#1 (?) has turned away too
The other sibling also had enough Arranging themselves in their cosy heap. EJ tidying up
Good Afternoon NOC
EJ can't cover all three chicks now, but bless EJ she does have a good go at doing it.
