Thank you, SHEILA :-) Odin looks much more substantial in that pic than he does on the nest, it must be the angle and posture.

Hi all :) Thanks for all the updates etc. Its certainly been an annoying situation with those persistent intruders. Good to know Odin has been seen in the territory by LG staff. Must be a nightmare for him and EJ.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
Bother, my sound went, and I now have a black screen. It's not VLC as LotL comes thru loud and clear.

Whew, that's better, only a temporary blip. EJ is looking much drier and doing a spot of preening, removing another small tickling feather.
EJ has a flap and back down. She's not risking leaving the eggs.

Up for a flap:
Down again:
EJ, you fantastic bird......what wonderful care you've taken of those eggs. They look good.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
It's raining again. EJ looks shattered :(
She does look good CLARE, despite all the hassle she has had. However, I really would still like to see Odin, even if only to pop in and say hello to us!
Oh dear, can I hear the plip plop starting again?
So would I. EJ does look so tired and wet but she doesn't seem overly concerned. I've got to say that my faith in this pair is intact and I'm sure they'll get through this.
