A handsome young male (unringed?) intruder made itself at home on the camera tree for a while yesterday. Odin was not happy but, as far as we could tell, violent feelings were not provoked - was it someone he was familiar with?
Moffer has created a wondrous record of all the intrusions of the season that we've put on the record - some more painful than others.
See what has made this a season to remember, the like of which many of us have never seen.
Compensation - a loyal couple seeing it thru together :-*

That's lovely, Scylla. How's your ear today?
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

I have hope for my ear, CLARE, but it's my left one and my LG laptop is on my left side ;-) I didn't hear Odin land just now.
Glad to see you made it here Moffer, it is so frustrating trying to post when everything is against us.
It took me six tries to get rich text format to come up on this thread. At least it let me log in this morning. Very disconcerting when it keeps blocking you.
Better go go before I throw the iPad out the window. Lol

moffer said: Doing the intruder thread yesterday, several things really stood out to me. We have had many beautiful photo's taken this year. It will be a year to remember, just for the range and quality of different locations and poses. We have had far more sticks delivered than fish, with whoppers and tiddlers on both fronts, and the sheer dedication of the LG posters who hardly let an hour go by without a comment. I'm so glad to be a part of the team :)

Me too!
I have a warm feeling when we are all together, and enjoy holding the fort on the few occasions I do, despite not doing the wonderful vids many of you provide.
Morning one and all. I had a very weird page this am when I woke up my tablet. Everything looked wrong wrong and I had to sign in. I will be in and out for the next couple of days.
I must add a big thank you to Moffer for starting the intruder thread. It is an excellent reminder and compilation, and thanks too to Birdie and Scylla for the vids which aid detailed analysis, some detail is so easy to miss... especially for me when I am trying to snip and save pics!

Odin is back. Cam has switched to grotty cam
and he's gone
OH!!!
(Gotta laff - I couldn't post this.)
Mobile cam is on. Side view of the nest
Here's another one from the "grotty" cam - it reminds me of olden times ;-D
Oh to read the mind of the camera-person at the moment ;-)
