Evening/morning all. Quiet on the nest. FYI, the super-bright light that was on last night isn't there - just normal lighting.
More mating! Whatever it was, it hasnt put him off!
EJ 'cheeping' on nest for a long time.....
Sounds of geese ? flying by - or could have been ducks! Think it was perhaps a duck , quite near.
Picture now losing definition as going dark there. EJ still softly calling.
Another brief mating. EJ then back to tidying the nest.
EJ flies in for a quick mating session. We are on night vision now. Tomorrow is my last day before being back at work full-time so I will enjoy it and might not post too much. Suffice to say - so far so good with the osps at LG this season. Emma
Hope you enjoy tomorrow, Emma. This has been a good start to the season, with EJ and Odin bonding well.
JSB thanks so much, I really appreciate the info on the Capercaillie -- am delighted to know that I've actually heard one call !!! And I'm one happy girl to know that Odin is truly back on form with fish and sticks. Atta boy !! (amongst other things :) )
EJ flies off again.
All quiet now - and I'm signing off, to the Night Shift.
