Evening all: Gary and AQ have been reporting on rain and a snoozy EJ at LG, where it sounds wet! Poor EJ has just raised her head - she looks quite flattened by all that rain. :-(
It looks much deeper than last year. Odin had a lot of attempts to dig it out, I noticed.
18.10 : Odin arrives but without fish... EJ peeps at him, is she asking for some?
After only 30 seconds on the nest, tweaking the twigs, he flies off again.
6:10 pm and Odin pays a visit.
EJ still calling.
Just logged on again after being out all afternoon. EJ on nest doing a bit of rearranging as though she wants to pile up the moss etc around her.
LOL - Marje is also feeling a bit restless and titivating nest from time to time.
She is a gorgeous girl, diligently going about her maternal duties.I mean EJ of course

Thanks for all the reports and pictures! I am happy to read that EJ had a couple of long breaks today. After the past two days of sitting on the eggs in the pouring rain she needed the breaks. She looks dry and content

Hi Barbara Jean. I've been popping in and out most of the day but when I have been watching it's been just great. Odin has been on top form and spent prolonged periods on the eggs to give EJ a bit of time off.
Well, EJ looks contented and set up for the night, doing a little preening. LOL looks contented as well.
There have been some great pics captured - I've put one or two in my pic album ready to use as a desktop background. Thanks to those who captured them.
Just waited for EJ to pose for this shot:
