Only 5 pages for yesterday's DU - says it all. EJ spent much of the morning waiting on the nest, but the rest of the day she was nowhere to be seen...
... nor heard, as we had no sound for the second day running.
The forum is playing up a bit so I can't check who I stole this lovely photo of a hopeful EJ from, I expect it was MOFFER:
Odin is not late, not by anyone's standards, let alone his - but our ospreys, like other birds and other signs of spring, are early this year, so haste ye home, dear Odin the Magnificent.
Here's hoping that the predicted snow fails to show up.
IMAGICAT
Morning Scylla, and thank you for starting us off. No snow but it's still windy. All quiet on the nestern front.
Birdie Num Num's brilliant DU summary 2017
Good morning, MOFFER - you're up very early today, hope your toe isn't disturbing your sleep.
The cams have been running for a few hours without cutting off. Oh heck, the page has done that funny thing again and I cannot see my typing at all, I shall hit Reply and see what happens.
I just replied MOFFER but it all went wrong. I backspaced some words out {silly me had to have them in a different order to make more sense - or less nonsense} and the box got narrower and narrower until you couldn't see any text at all. It ended up like this.
I was saying that I hope your toe isn't disturbing your sleep, as it's very early for you to be up these days.
The cam has been continuously playing for a few hours. No sign of anyone on the nest. EJ should be here any minute.
I've been trying to do Blue24's stick video but keep getting it wrong.
The whole episode was actually corrupted - in the case of the first video I did, it enhanced it, being in very slight slow motion - but the later part is sound on/off and clips not cutting where I tell them to.
Dang, the box is narrowing again.
Hi Scylla. Gemlins in the works for me too. Yes my toe is playing up :(
Starting to get light at LG. Stll no EJ.
I wonder if she spent the night away from LG... found herself a 'friend'? But I didn't think there were any spare males about.
I'm off now, cannot keep my eyes open and it looks as tho EJ may indeed be taking a break from LG.
See y'all later :-}
All this is the post that disappeared as I typed it, and it didn't appear after I posted it.

[/quote]Ok Scylla. See you later. Still all quiet at LG and it's almost light!
EJ had the briefest of touchdowns on the nest
