Daily Update, Saturday, April 3, 2010

Starting this early because I don't want to forget Tiger's last post on the previous day's update, which was "The male osprey is back at Kielder."    Can Odin be far behind?    LG nest empty; Marge snoozing at LOTL.  Come on guys!

    Hi all

    Still no sign of the man of the moment then, Hey ho.

    Quote  ''Or can they be "distracted" by good mating opportunities before they get there.''  Annette, dare I say it   lol

    Hi Su, and welcome. you have no idea what you have signed yourself in for, but you will love it.  You need lots of time to sit here and do nothing else , you need a box of tissues at hand and you need to keep up with reports from our many friends in  America and Aus and , well all over the world in fact,  for updates on the nest when we are asleep  Enjoy.

    Edit : (yes you do know,what is ahead of us all,  have read back through todays comments).

     

    Susin, Hi,

    I had the kleenex in abundance last year, with little Mallachie and her trials and tribulations ,which she thankfully survived. Of the 3 chicks she was the one I rooted for. Seems such a shame that we seem to have lost her. I have been pinned to the spot all day awaing Odin's appearance. EJ has done a disappearing act and I am worried to say the least. We survived the Odin experience with the fishing wire, but what if EJ has become entangled also. Oh dear, I think I'm catastrophising, but EJ has been gone such a long time

  • Su She could be sitting on the camera post to the right hand side of the nest as we look at it.  I think she does that sometimes.  Dinna worry!!!!!

  • Mantling.  wonder who it is.  Could it be??? and she just not recognising him yet?? Oh this is ridiculous,c/mon Odin she's been here on her own for eight days now

    All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy.
