Daily Update ~ Loch Garten Nest ~ Tuesday, 12 May 2015

  • More alarm calling - very close to 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.

  • Only ODIN has landed during this fracas. I think that EJ has picked Odin and is stopping Fen from landing. She is most certainly stopping someone.

  • Here is a video of some of the most recent defending of the nest by Odin, and a little of EJ defending herself briefly:

  • Well for some strange reason this popped up in my timeline.  A lovely reminder of times past, scylla’s long-held devotion to duty and MC and of course, our beloved Odin

  • The same has happened to me today Kork, on a thread 4 years ago that is now closed! At least yours was a nice reminder of dear Odin.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

  • Same here.  Which made me worry a bit about CRinger.  We enjoyed his knowledgeable company during the osprey season, so perhaps he too migrates and enjoys the sunshine.  I do hope he returns safely in 2019!  And how lovely to see dear Odin again!  
    There was also a link to a closed thread when politics reared its ugly head.  LOL, and now I can't find it.

  • In fact there are links to a lot of old threads, all with either a post or the thread 'deleted'.  What on earth is going on?
    They come up under the zigzag notification orange circle, top right, rather than 'lastest posts' which also have posts 'over 4 years ago', 11 months ago, etc.
