More intrusions yesterday but no nest landings - Odin dealt with it all, no help from EJ necessary.
We have been on hatch-watch all day, with "has it or hasn't it" very difficult to discern.
EJ just took a bathroom break, giving us the opportunity to see what is underneath her in the floodlights tonight >:(
First the lovely part:
Coming back:
This is set on 2x speed, hoping any movement will show up better.

She just got up and I can see 1 chick moving.
Tiger's Osprey News
The chick has turned to her to be fed. Ej has taken the fish and is feeding the little one.
She is now eating the skin while making nice chirrups.
Still feeding the little one, which will be not so little very soon if the other two don't hurry up
Feed is over and EJ settles on the chick and eggs.
Looking at the eggs, on the right there is half egg shell, in the middle a big egg, and on the left a small (or a bit hidden) egg.
The egg on the left (red arrow) is very small, for a second I thought it was the other half shell...
BEJ (Beautiful EJ)
I have to go out now. Will there be a 2nd chick when I get back at lunchtime? Are we still within the window of the 2nd egg being viable? I worry too much as I said to Moffer the other day!
EJ has gone for a quick fly about. She returns chirruping to her chick, and takes a few bits of the fish herself.
contact chips all the time. After she has fed herself, she feeds the osplet

My firefox gently crashed while EJ was gettin up as awating for fish. Now she's feeding the chick, but I think she's giving him/her the tail.
EDIT Sorry I can't express myself properly. What I meant is that I thought she was waiting for Odin, but she was not. She's feeding the chick the old bit of fish.
