Is today the day EJ adds to the lovely osprey egg collection with her number 2? Tune in and see :-)
Well it is about 66 hours since the last egg. So the new egg laying window has opened.
See egg stats.
Mind you EJ once laid two eggs in 2 hours but Henry was annoyed with her at the time.

Hi, TBoL! You're joining us at an interesting time! Oh, blimey - here's Odin:
He's back and there's definitely mantling going on now:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
I think it's happening!

Odin was having a look there to see if there is another egg too. LOL

He has flown.
Odin goes....
I wonder if mating at the point of egg laying helps things along?
Maya was so obliging y'day with her back to us. EJ is going to do the same as for the first egg. All the action covered.
Was that it??
I think she has laid it 09.59. She is no longer pushing or splayed out.
