Hi to all early morning watchers. Looks peaceful at the moment at LG.
EJ sitting and perhaps dozing off from time to time. Got to get her beauty sleep before the young ones arrive.
All peaceful at LOtL as well.

EJ gets up and shouts insistently, fidgits with the eggs and sits again, Odin must be around, he has to be, with that morning fish.
Goodd morning All. EJ is giving a sort of half hearted chirp. Went out of the room and something has happened and EJ is standing on the nest
Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.
It makes your heart skip. I have just seen both of them admiring their eggs. Ahhh!!
Odin on the nest but EJ is not having it. Probably telling him to go fishin. He keeps chirping gently to her but EJ is ignoring him
.Now just standing near the edge - EJ begins chirping as if to say, "go on fella and go and get me a fish"
After much calling by EJ, Odin flew in but just standing on the nest. EJ has had a quick preen and resumed her position - still cheeping.
The wind appears to be back at LG.
Odin appears to be ignoring EJ and is preening himself. They make a lovely pair - almost like an ol married one.
No FISH ' N no SIT ' N LOL
EJ was calling for food. Odin came to the nest empty talons
EJ stood up at the edge of the nest cup and started preening. Odin pushed himself right up to EJ and was softly peepimg and looking lovingly at his eggs while EJ preened and ignored him
EJ finally sat back down on the eggs. Odin is still on the nest softly peeping to EJ for his turn on the eggs while EJ ignores him . He has been on the nest several minutes pleading for his turn on the eggs . Poor guy , He looks quite dejected

I see Odin has arrived on the nest ... and doesn't seem terribly interested in going fishing! If he doesn't depart soon, EJ's gentle calls will become deafening shrieks :-) Having said that they do look good together. Oh ... EJ suddenly ups and flies off, leaving Odin to egg sit ... so he did get his own way!
