Night vistion back on. EJ resting which is a good sign - she needs it after the traumas of yesterday!

She's still looking round a lot and seems a bit anxious, maybe she's seen Odin is about. Still windy up there. Will have to sign off as going out for a while, back later. Just looked at LOtL and all seems well there too.
Morning: Odin just returned, they 'peeped' at each other a little, then EJ flew off for a comfort break. Odin now settling on the eggs in his serious way "this is my imporant job"....
pic of him returning:
In less than a minute, she was back!! Odin not best pleased, and stays on the eggs until EJ has tidied the nest a little, and peeped at him somewhat to move. Then he's off .
pic of him thinking he has a few minutes to himself, with the wind ruffling his hair:
Just logged on to the camera and EJ is quite vocal so hopefully there might be a fish delivery imminent.
Yes Sandy I heard from the other room that she is chirping gently, asking for food. Maybe Odin is not far away, hopefully with a fish.

Lindybird: I've got the sound almost at zero to eliminate the worst of the buzzing and her calls are still piercing so I reckon she's pretty hungry right now.
EJ looking really pretty this morning, in the sunshine:
A FISH. Quite a good size: EJ takes it and flies off. Odin now tidying the nest and settling down.
I think that when Odin caught it, that must have been a whopper of a fish. He'd eaten half of it and there was quite a chunk left.
Forgot to say, I thought he'd eaten at least the head, Sandy. EJ must be enjoying a feast now, then.
