I think you're right, Lmac. Though Glesni herself intruded at Dyfi while Ceulan was alone on the nest.
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 wasn't at all confident that that was Odin's call.
Alarm!!! Intruder tried to land, didn't make it.
IMAGICAT
Intruder just tried to land. EJ stopped it from doing so.

It's back:
She's just repelled it.
What I was going to say, before being interrupted by the alarm, was "Are intruders themselves likely to issue alarm calls?".
Clare Bailey said: Yes, we have - Odin has been seen chasing intruders.
Yes, we have - Odin has been seen chasing intruders.
But WE haven't seen him have we CLARE? and he's clearly not around the nest just now. If he's away , as yesterday, chasing an intruder. what chance a fish today for EJ?? I just don't like the situation
Pretty colours, that's about it!
We need a roving reporter at LG today - who can spare the time and go? Hee hee

No SCYLLA - it's a defensive tactic
Could he be alarm calling?
