Well don't ask me.

Morning Scylla, Mary Patily and Mike, and thank you Limpy for starting the day with the lovely pics of EJ. I've been catching up watching an ENS and so sad to read there has been no sighting of EJ and Odin. Another strange day in a chickless year. If EJ has gone will Odin decide he has no purpose, and follow her south.
Thank you Birdie and Scylla for the vids of Wednesday's last fish deliver and sighting of EJ. She was certainly looking very fit for her journey ahead - if indeed she has gone.

I can certainly hear what you mean Scylla BUT I regret I have no idea what it is. There seem to be at leats two different calls if not three. The deep one early on I guess is a Corvid.
Birdies LG DU update.
Oooh the 'critter' sound?? Initially I thought goose, then green woodpecker, but in all honesty I have no idea!
Well, at least we all agree there is something there and therefore WE HAVE SOUND :-D

LOL, or at least when you made your recording! As my cam always drops out I am never too sure whether mine is live when there is no action, unless I refresh!
I was saddened to read that Blue XD has a new younger mate, and Green J has been outsted. Our two have been steadfast in defending their nest, repelling all those to tried to usurp them.

I think Roy was just guessing what might have happened, he obviously doesn't know when the new girl appeared, how it fitted in with GreenJ leaving the nest area. But the end of their partnership, however it happened, is very sad.
It's possible that the circumstances might be similar to LG. EJ didn't need to oust anyone - she just arrived when the previous female had left of her own accord.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Morning all. Finally I'm here. Strange daylight changeover this morning. Someone has been on the nest. The soft furnishings have moved. Last daylight pic last night and now
and if I see this one more time today, I'm throwing my toys out of the pram!!!

Trust you to spot the difference, MOFFER ;-) What a shame we've missed Odin (probably).
BTW, have you tried changing browsers? (If clearing cache and cookies in your usual browser hasn't done any good.) I went from FF to Chrome to Opera and back to FF, which has been glitchily OK for a while now.
