Well, they're home - EJ and, yes, Odin, after some conjecture and hats being threatened with devourment ;-D
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.

Hi all :-)ManyM thanks for all the updates, pictures etc and a very Happy New Month to everyone ;-)
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
'I'm the man'
He flies off, followed by EJ.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
For me they flew off under cover of a downed webcam stream ;-)
Have to head out to work now but I'll try and post. Mobile data permitting. Have a great time my friends :-)
Have a good day, Paul.
Here she is again:
Thanks for the earlier reports and pics. EJ still on the nest.
Morning. Thank you to the early birds for the reports of matings (no surprise there) and no fish (sadly no surprise there either)
She's calling again - gently, but persistently.
Calling more persistently now.
Nookie call:
He has flown.....straight in for another session!
They are insatiable!
