On a (by turns) hot, cool, dry, wet, still, windy day... Odin spent his time eating, nestorising, and, all too often, defending - putting the fear of god into allcomers.

Odin's back again. Intruder alarm, defending!
Birdie Num Num's brilliant DU summary 2017
Odin is back 10.58. He landed on cam, and his flaps and chirrup came thru later!
A warning chirrup?
Wide wings, mantling. Is EJ around, or is that an intruder mantle. Its an intruder call, getting louder. Proper intruder chirrup.
Danger has passed. Odin is on the front perch, looking around him, panting. It must be warm again today.
Looking fierce, as he watches around him, more warning chirrups.
Calls getting persistent and louder.
He continues to call, but is no longer mantling. He is being very uncooperative!
Very unusual to see him 'defending' in this position, right up against the campost.
