As Birdie Num Num has reported, Odin and EJ managed 15 matings, leading some to speculate that all this frenzy can only mean eggs must be imminent. Even possibly tomorrow. However, as of now, the nest is empty, even as a possibly eggy EJ is roosting somewhere close by.
A lovely shot by RSPB yesterday of our loving couple in their Love Tree. :-*Thank you to BNN for her invaluable Daily Summaries.

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
On checking the nighttime recording, I found a flyer-by at 0506hr - one of ours or not, can't tell. Only a few seconds.

Lovely! Lots of captures of this beautiful bird.
