Hi MaryGK! It's lovely to see this peacefulness.

Odin lands gracefully to EJ's contact calls and mantles at the front end of the nest (all to the cuckoo calls!). Then a mating a few minutes later.
Morning CC (Seen you elsewhere Mike :-)
I heard the mating but was snipping elsewhere LOL... so missed them.
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
Odin has a twiggy stick and is walking around the nest trying to put it in the "right" place while EJ looks on....
He flies!!

We get a nice closeup of Odin after he brings another stick. EJ flies off. "Huh??? Where'd she go???"
Then he scrapes out the cup again after noticing the egg. And he flies off leaving the egg.
Must be off to bed now! Hiya Mike Bye Mike and MaryGK - see you all in my morning! :))
Wonderful CC - the videos tell the story much better than snips... Thank You!
Sounds a little thunderstormy there - wonder if they are both in the tree - the view has not widened out yet.
