Yesterday I wished for fish and a mobile cam. Odin kept his side of the deal by providing EJ with THREE fish. 5.01am, 8.04pm and 9.50pm.
The weather was pretty wet on and off all day, but it didn't stop Odin from adding quite a few new branches to the nest. As said by Sheila, "it's like he's building a frustration nest on top of this nest", and I agree. There was only one brief intruder episode that we noted, and it didn't come to anything.
It was lovely to see so much of EJ. Much more than of late, starting in the early morning too :)
Lets hope that today is as enjoyable to watch. Would be lovely with sound please.

I wonder where EJ is?
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
He's back
He's back:
Off he goes again

He's back again followed by EJ
EJ has the fish tail and has flown.
Both here:

Off she goes:
He celebrates the fish handover with a potter:
Odin potters and has flown. It's quite breezy up there.
Odin did a fly by and has now landed. Moves a couple of soft furnishings, has a scrape and looks fab before he leaves.
