DAILY UPDATE (Loch Garten nest) Thursday, 5 June 2014

EJ is soaked to the skin - see how her feathers have parted under the weight of water :'(

 

Odin has been literally magnificent, providing good fish throughout the periods of bad weather, but it can't be easy so we must hope that it does not become sustained heavy rain.

On a lighter note - and don't tell me to get a life, though you'd find it hard to resist if you knew how long this took me - here is how the blurry blob got on the lens, the night before last.  Yes, it's chick-poo, thank goodness it's small and didn't land in the middle of the lens, but there's plenty of time for a growing chick to perfect its aim :-(
