Brilliant news. I knew it the minute I went to the live cam and saw EJ sitting. Hurray. A BIG THANK you to all posts, especially all the clever folks who linked to videos for those of us who missed it. Lovely. EJ is inspecting the egg right now - and has just settled down on it again. Have to pop out; then cook dinner and still haven't had a shower; back later.
Now we've lost the webcam - hope its only temporary, and the wind has not blown it away.
Odin, you certainly have changed this year. EJ should pick up one of those sticks and hit him with it !!!!
EJ has left the nest. Can't say I blame her.
Yes, Margobird - EJ is the clever one. She waited until Odin and done 7 sky dances and presented 7 fish before she accepted him ;) she'd had enough of poor providers LoL
At least it looks like he's willing to take a turn incubating. From the still camera:

Great shot of the egg Lindybird !
Now I have the webcam back, and can see him sitting on the nest.
Wait, EJ just came back --- "Hey, that's my job, get off that egg !"
Lindybird as long as Odin is incubating egg at least EJ can go and bag herself a big fish although it might be difficult today with all that wind.
Margobird
Quite right Cirrus she knows she is on a good thing with Odin, long may this pair stay together.
