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 >:(

Looking alert all of a sudden:

Still raining
She's still checking underneath her. Come on, Chick 2......surprise us all!
Well, hello:
EJ isn't moving......is she protecting Little One from the rain?
Hi everyone :-) And just as I'm about to say the usual thanks, Odin arrives with a FISH:-)
