It is a huge privilege to start this new thread, especially after a day like yesterday.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my mother, father, all ospreys worldwide and Tiger for drawing in his claws and stepping back.
I wish us all a less confused day of watching and attempting to interpret, and EJ and Odin the very best luck in the world in their defence of the most famous Osprey nest in the world.
Greetings all fellow 'midnighters'.
Some people think Ospreys are a matter of life and death. I don't like that attitude. I can assure them it is much more serious than that.
No, sorry, it was just her his hugeness at first.
Whoever it was flew off unaggressively. Someone back defending.

Bird alert:
He flies, and then returns (or does another bird appear?):
He has 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.
My last three captures are certainly Fenrir. I just missed capturing the underwing of the bird in my first three captures.
I hate to say this but Odin is clearly a long way from vanquishing Fenrir.
Scuse me if I'm duplicating but I'm on autopilot amid a very slow system.
In place of a video:
This one I'm sure Moffer has:
Clare I was going to like your comment but changed my mind. I wholeheartedly agree with you and thought the week would carry on like this. Wherever he went or whatever happened to him I'm not sure OtM is magnificent enough to win his nest and his girl back. He seems to be very much the underdog and outsider at present.
Well smack my legs and colour me purple if that's not ODIN.
