Morning all; All quiet on nests so far with EJ and Marge snoozing.
He is still there peeking over the nest from his perch LOL
Formerly known as Barbara Jean
Barbara Jean: In all the time I've watched this nest I have never seen an osprey perch there - I didn't even know it was possible.
He's still there. I can just see his head moving behind the edge of the nest.
You can see him better in this video just before the cam changed to night vision.

Sandy I agree, I've never seen it before. Must go and find a pic from the other cam from last year. Maybe the "parrot" was sitting on there after all.
There is a picture of the nest in Roy Dennis's book on page 193. There are some larger branches under the nest , but I don't see any branch high enough for him to sit on and be able to "peek into nest. Actually he is peeking between some branches on the nest . Did they move the new camera so it has a different view from last year ?
He is still there !!
He just flew off
Unknown said: This is amazing. EJ was calling for food so Odin was in the area. Perhaps he was eating. An Osprey flew over the nest ( I think it was Odin) and landed right "Under " the nest on side of the nest facing away from the camera . If you see the large tree on the left and look just to the right of that you can see the top of it's head bobbing ( probably eating) . EJ doesn't see it and stopped calling . Is this Odin's hiding place to eat without EJ seeing him ? Apparently he doesn't want to share

Evening Barbara Jean this is unusual and I missed it all again. Been on here ages today so thinking it is time to log off and give the eyes a rest. I suppose this means EJ has not had supper.

And now he's off at 9:09 pm.
just back at screen and have missed all of the above half hour, how strange, I am laughing to myself though at thought of him keeking out and over to the nest. Unfortunately youtube have removed the clip because its too long

He flew away so maybe he went fishing. In the past he has brought in fish later at night . Fish come to surface early and late in the day.
EJ is rolling eggs
