Evening/morning all: Let's hope the early morning show isn't as confusing as last night.
I hope Alan recorded that. When EJ returned she kept standing on Odin's tail feathers. He couldn't move.
Now she is doing some special low 'cheeping' which sounds as if she's talking to the eggs.
Hilarious changeover as EJ lands on Odin's tail and wingtips to try to persuade him to shift. Odin was having none of it and tried to hold his ground, becoming quite vocal - he wasn't going quietly. EJ, as always, wins the argument by physically levering him out the the nest cup! Brilliant!
Thanks to Alan for great clip of the fish delivery- its very touching seeing how very carefully Odin climbs over and settles on the eggs. A good day today for the LG nest.
Odin certainly hasn't gone far as he can clearly be heard. Don't know if he is warning something off or if he is just chuntering at EJ for kicking him off the eggs too soon.
My goodness ... Odin is being very vocal on the nest ... is there an intruder around?

Soo funny. Now he is just sloping about and as Sandy said "chuntering" . Picking up a stick here and being silly!!
Edit In fact he just gave EJ the evils!! LOL It's so unlike him to answer her back/ She is totally ignoring him.
Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.
He's having a real whinge there isn't he ... and he keeps glaring at the back of EJ's head ... really funny :)))
Now they both look like they;re falling asleep!!
He's not using his osprey alarm "chirrup", so I don't think there's any intruders - he's just got one on him!
EJ is completely ignoring him. LOL
