Happy Easter all!
OK. So EJ and Odin safely at LG, but what has happened to the LOTL cam. Haven't been able to get anything. It looks like it's going to load okay, then you get just a black screen. Let's hope they get it sorted soon. Margobird said they'd had horrible weather there yesterday, so maybe that knocked out something.
Well, I missed Odin's arrival but thanks to BigRab, there's a video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4EoYaRO6js which I plan to watch myself in a minute.
Busy day here, also amazed to see Trucker cam is now in Albuquerque - boy! does that guy ever cover ground. So I really have to follow him tomorrow (along with you-know-who) because I've driven that road and just love the huge wide horizons. But it's also Easter, so a bit of family stuff going on. Bought some lovely strawberries from the farm down the road and then went to supermarket and bought some naughty cheese (fattening double cream French Brie), mushrooms stuffed with all kinds of yummy stuff and simply couldn't turn down Haagen Dazs's invite to try - "at special introduction price" - new Java Chip flavor with coffee and chocolate chips. Was at Costco earlier and got some great asparagus and Wild Alaska Halibut. So we had a nice dinner, but ice cream still unopened - for now.
The Loch Garten camera within the much repaired trunk. Rothes, Mallachie and Garten all in the nest as this is pre-fledging.
Hey people: Is anyone having trouble posting messages on other folks' profile pages? I tried twice to post to two members' pages but nothing happened,
Here is one of my photos showing the camera at LOTL
ChloeB & Tiger's Osprey Data
FYI, David has added an update towards the end of the replies. He says Odin delivered a fish but then took it back !!
This gives an idea of how far fromn the centre the nest is. You can see the nest and camera tree in the middle of the photo.
You can just see the camera on the trunk of the tree behind the nest. It is just visible below the folliage. I think the chick was probably looking right into the camera at this point.
Chloe, that is a fantastic photoi.
Thanks Hazel :)
Great pix Chloe. Thanks.
Thanks Annette. That was taken in 2007 just before the chicks fledged.
