High time I started a DU thread! It's the first day of May and EJ the Beautiful is fast asleep:
If all goes to plan we should have chicks this month! Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic after last year but I'm feeling positive for this pair.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
moffer said:I can't hear even wind, just buzz.
Was about to ask "Is it just me?". Terrible buzz, no sound from the nest - and it looks very windy, a stick blew in from the right side earlier.
Is there any point us doing daycam/nightcam times when we realised yesterday evening just how far behind we are? Anyway...
DAYCAM 0513hr:
EJ had a 'quiet' night, alternating between tucked-in and flat-out sleep, then at 04:13 she was woken up by sound? that I couldn't hear - that's when I realised I had no sound. It was nothing significant, she just stayed sat up after that.
IMAGICAT
I'll let them know about the sound.
EDIT. Done.

Good boy Odin :)
Odin naps in the wind.

He's been looking around, alert but not alarmed.
Good Morning all
Nice to see a snow and frost free nest AND a fish already Well done Odin
Morning Patily. All we need now is sound. I'm sure Jess will fix it once the staff get into the VC.
Morning all - thanks for all the earlier updates. Wonderful to see a lovely large fish which I am sure she is ready for. Well done OtM.
