OK. So we're keeping a special eye out for Odin this morning..... Cirrus: I remember Odin bringing fish very early when I was watching the chicks last year - it's much lighter earlier then so that may account for it. jsb: Thanks for the info re EJ's (non-)returning chicks. BIrds must be a lot like us: We love to see our kids but aren't too keen on having them move back in and taking over the house.
It is a male. Look at the white breast
Odin has a much darker markings on the top of his head
Formerly known as Barbara Jean
EJ not satisfied with location of loose feathers
Brilliant catch Auntie!!
Finally. ODIN! "And where the heck have YOU been?" says EJ.
EJ alarmed, calling, I can hear rush of wings as she watches skywards. Is that Odin landed to protect her?
Odin defending . . . and he leaves
That doesn't look like Odin!
If it is Odin he took off after an intruder or EJ chased him away because it is not Odin
Huh. Odin wasn't there long - EJ gave him a hard time and he flew off.
It wasn't? I can't believe she would've let anyone else land on the nest. Whoever it was, he was there at least a minute....Auntie? AQ? I'm stumped now.
