ALL ABOARD! For another day in the sensational saga that is the 2016 LG Osprey season. Many thanks to Birdie Num Num for an excellent summary of yesterday's events. EJ... THREE EGGS!! Hope someone got a pic of that.
Edited due to sudden massive increase in heart rate during original typing causing terrible typos, even by my standards. I'm certain I saw three eggs though.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
She's enjoying 40 winks at the moment.
"Searchlight" time - an unusual time, they used to do it around 22-2300hr, last year.
IMAGICAT
Looking lovely and serene. "It's not hard for me", she says.
Almost flat out. It takes it out of one :-(
EJ is a Phenomenal Osprey. However not many people know certain facts about her.
When EJ flies, she doesn't move herself forward but forces the sky and surface of the earth backwards
.
The dark has a fear of EJ.
They tried to make a set of kitchen knifes as sharp as EJ's talons but just couldn't get them sharp enough.
I wonder what official time they'll give for the laying of egg 3.
They're still there:
Its getting lighter. The day cam should be on soon.
Morning all. Thank you Heron for starting the day, and breaking the news that the third egg had been laid. Fantastic!!!
Thank you Scylla and all for your comments, pics and vid. How did she manage to lay with us watching and not seeing?
It's getting really light now, no snow thank goodness.

I had a feeling I should refresh before I posted my "it's getting lighter" snap ;-D
Good morning, MOFFER (nearly forgot to say that!),
Am very tired so I'll see y'all later.
