Another routine day, with last night's snow having hampered our devoted couple not at all.
"Routine"... it might sound boring, but the activity on this nest at the beginning of this season is the most reassuring I've seen in my short LG-watching career.
IMHO the PM hole has to be a slight concern, if only because it seems to be preventing EJ and Odin (especially Odin) from making up their minds on the nestcup position. The clumps that filled the hole didn't last long. So that's something to keep us on our toes... where will the nestcup be?
Not a lot of glare on the nest tonight, thank you HQ :-) This particular view is rather nice because you can see the birds' shadow on the "next door" tree in as they fly to the nest. But nobody's obliged yet tonight.

It was moved yesterday evening - Odin put sticks on top of it; then later there was a melee with him and EJ; then he, mainly, deliberately took the rug and placed it on the right-hand edge :-/

You're looking particularly gorgeous today, Odin:
LOL! He is a superstar, isn't he?
EJ has just flown.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
