DAILY UPDATE (Loch Garten nest) Thursday, 14 August 2014

Another new day on the nest at Loch Garten all is very quiet , in fact as usual it is ENS on the nest at the moment.
So the big question is has EJ gone on her migration or has she just disappeared for a few hours as she has done this before .
So will she turn up later this morning with a very large fish for the girls, well  everyone we will just have to wait and see I still believe EJ will go before the 19th, for now it is the waiting game.

  • Nights are drawing in :-(

  • Even though it is empty nest, it is so serene and beautiful. How many do we know who would find it so?

    So my take on the day so far, and happy to be corrected.

    Fish 1  05.49 from Odin - Druie got it and at 06.54 Seasca grabbed the tail end and she left with it at 06.59, to return again with it at 07.18 to finish it in peace.

    Fish 2  07.42 from EJ which Seasca got

    Fish 3  08.47 from EJ, which Millie got

    Fish 4 1 2.29 from EJ. Druie arrived but EJ held on to the fish.  12.33 EJ fed Druie, and at some point EJ flew off with the tail end and returned with it at 14.09 followed closely by Druie.  14.25 Odin popped in, possibly to finish the fish, but EJ wasn't having it and he flew off.  At 14.29 Druie pinched EJ's tail end and eventually both flew off.

    Fish 5  14.53 from Odin.  Seasca got it, and probably dropped it over the side!

    Promoting Sheila's summary of fish events today. Thank you Sheila.

    Just the 1425hr event needs amending - cos Odin the Mag brought a fish but took it away due to lack of interest.  Then he redelivered the same fish to Seasca @ 1453hr.

  • Well done, Scylla, for clarifying the sequence of events around 3.00pm! Makes absolute sense now. Thanks also to everyone else who tried to make out what was happening.

  • Thanks, scylla, for clearing up the confusion! Nice to know EJ is still here and Odin is also being vigilant to his kids. :)
