All is not yet 100% satisfactory - the mating is now up to speed but fish provision is below parr... sorry, par. For the past two days the good fish that Odin has delivered have mysteriously been unclaimed by EJ. Maybe she's feeding herself but there's no evidence of that.
LMAC has warned us of wet and windy conditions approaching and the wind started up a little while ago, sounds wicked!
Another nice nightnest tonight, maybe my email wasn't in vain after all.

I think I am ready for a bit more shut-eye, so I will sign off for now and SYAL! :-*
Oh dear. Intruder. Inevitable I suppose at such a desirable nesting site. I would prefer a nice peaceful season though. At the moment, as people have commented, EJ and Odin look more than capable of defending.
