AS usual the chicks (juvies yet?) have had periods of activity - fidgetiness really. One of the elders was asleep with her back to the wind but the disturbance to her feathers didn't rouse her - her sister's wing did, though, and she got up and was nearly somersaulted by the wind :o
Later, EJ arrived, uneasy, just as she had been last night. Eventually she settled to a comfortable pose, she's still there now:
This is from yesterday - I know certain Odin fans will like to see him perched on a stick, on which he landed (but I just missed the landing thru a blackage) and stayed while he made sure there was no threat:

MIMS, very nice set of pictures for the comparison of the head markers; I think you deserve SCYLLA's prize, if she hasn't awarded it yet. So is it #2's head darker and #1's head whiter? In the above pic they would be from the nearest: 3, 1, 2?

Thanks Noc, I do think 2's head is darker, but as soon as the feathers move or they're walking around, I really can't tell. As for Scylla's prize lol Noc, I'm sure whatever prize that is others are more worthy:-)) I would probably win the prize in confusing everyone though:-p
I do know one thing I am not convinced that Druie is female
