Morning all: Two eggs and how many more to go? Had to laugh at Soosin's mention of the "parrot," which played such a role in last year's nest watch. So EJ has found a place to hide out? Let's see how long that lasts....
Hi everyone.Spent most of the day watching the nest while trying to find an easy way of deciding what old paperwork goes to the shredder and what goes straight into the recycling bin.It's the longest I've watched EJ and Odin. What fantastic pair of ospreys. It's wonderful to see the bond between these two wonderful characters. The wind seems to have died down a bit (although not much) since earlier but I'm glad that Odin deepened the nest cup a good bit. Many thanks for all the obs, pics etc.I know there hasn't been a lot of mating today but I'm not sure if they've decided to settle for twins this year, or they're just taking a wee break so they can leave a small gap between the second and possible third eggs.

Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
Even with a gale force wind EJ managing to look so serene, wonderful Mum. Wonder if Odin will visit again tonight. Looks much lighter at LG than it does at LOTL.

Heron: THey are fantastic birds aren't they? This is my second season watching and I was so impressed by how they matched up again really quickly and settled into a routine. (Did your "shred-it-or-recycle-it?" chore a few weeks back - we shred anything with personal info on it - did it in small batches so we wouldn't go mad with the noise).
Soosin: Thanks for more good news about LOTL.
Off to whales.
Hi.
Night cam on at LotL. Great to hear the male's been improving. Perhaps being a new young male with such an experienced female as Marge, means he's having to grow into the role. I'm not sure if ospreys can get starstruck with famous ospreys? LOL
Soosin. If I have LG and LOTL on my screen at the same time they are both all fuzzy. What am I doing>>
Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.
Night cam on at LG and the wind seems to be abating slightly. The forecast for tomorrow is bad then good .LL
Hi Annette.
It's just brilliant to watch them. I tend to leave the stuff to be shred in bags. The noise of a shredder should only be tolerated in small doeses. :-) Have a great time at the whales.
Hi Tish
Can't think why they would both be fuzzy, don't think it would be anything your doing. I have four cams on just now and they're all ok/
Heron 77 - Great news about LOTL cheered me up tremendously and he will learn a lot from Marge as well. Just glad he is growing into the role.
