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 Clare - I say, now! I bet on eggs by next Sunday.

By Friday would be my guess, CC.
She looks alert:
She has flown - no, she's back, and nestorising:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
How come you're up at this hour, CC? Are you OK?
I would agree Clare. We'll be ready!I'm up at this hour because I was dead tired yesterday and fell asleep early. So now it is 4am and I am taking advantage of the early time to see Loch Garten in the mid-day! I do not have to work today so I will be able to take a nap later when the bird are settling down! :)
However, ti is also true that I'll probably go have another lie-down since it is pitch black here still. :D
Thank You for all the posts and captures everyone.
The Visitor Centre will be open today. I would love to see what was written on that White Board right now :-)
EG: How many fish up to now, has there been intruders, has EJ been fishing for herself etc etc etc....
Oh for a report from someone who will be visiting over the weekend :-)

Well, I wonder what will happen with fish deliveries TODAY?!
Lmac was right about the wind! EJ continues to call for fish.
She's nookie calling again.
Odin has arrived with a stick.
