We're up!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Cam moving around, she is on the branch just below the nest
They are focusing in, suspect to try and get a clear view of her ring
Well done Clare and Tiger and of course the wonderful EJ. I've had the camera on since 7 o'clock but she arrived when I went to wash my hair-typical!!!
Kind regards
Jenny
I've started a new Daily Update thread here. Woo Hoo!!!!!!
Her White EJ darvic, clear as day :-))) Not that we need to see that to recognize our beautiful EJ

I wonder if she was spotted fishing.
She does look a bit thin, so I'm glad she has a fish!
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
Yippee a friend texted me to say EJ home OMG those captures of our girl are such a sight for teary eyes. Can't wait to get home to see her on screen, to say I am ecstatic is an understatement. Dentist first though such a pain not at home

Clare Bailey said: To be honest I can still remember the camera quality back in 2012, when Limpy and I started watching. It was so terrible that when the eggs started to hatch I could make out the chicks - all I could make out was a blur whenever EJ fed one. Fast forward to 2015 and we had moved on to a situation where we not only had a much clearer picture of the nest (though still not perfect) but we also had someone moving the camera to wherever the birds happened to be. This live stream is not perfect but it has improved so much in the last few years.

Just for a comparison take your pick, both of them are nothing to write home about are they! Compared to the quality of the likes of Glaslyn who are self funded.
