Getting a late start tonight, but no rush. EJ on nest; all is quiet.
Monring Cirrus just wonderful news this morning but as usual I missed the live performance once again. EJ now calling for Odin to take over the duties and bring her a fish hopefully.

Had to laugh at yoyur comment Lindybird. There is now way of keeping up with normal life and even when they leave we are still hungry for news about them,.

Brenda I feel the same, 3 is enough, otherwise we go through the heartache of chicks not making it.
Hello Margobird - yup, I reckon and trust Odin is now fishing. No fish as yet. (Shudder, me too!)
Hello Margo, I certainly would never want to watch a repetition of 2008 again and that was just three eggs. Ok, it was OVS, but as we know, there is such a lot expected of the male, even if it is Odin.

Me neither Brenda, I have shed many tears over the last 3 years one way or another.
When you read the books about ospreys, and the reports and stats of previous years events, it makes you realise just how fragile is their grip on life. Also, EJ & Odin did such a sterling job of raising 3 healthy chicks last year - well done you two!
Good morning Margobird, Cirrus, Lindybird and BrendaH and everyone else Just had a wee peek at her ladyship and everything seems fine but 3 EGGS!! That's the one who will be the feistiest!! lol Still looks cold up there. It;s flipping freezing out here too! Sunny, windy and cold. Just a wee bit of heeat from the sun would not go amiss.
Trying to get up to date with everything so can be glued when the babes arrive. I'm worrying already!! Oh Italics how good is trhat!!
Edit Luckily I only started watching last year so don't have that upset to think about. How do I get rid of these italics??
Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.
Headless fish just delivered. Not a fat one - average size.
EJ just moved and I saw them for the first time. Clever EJ. Hope Odin will come up to the mark when he is needed. Think so!!
