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 appears to have lost her worse emergency screech !! Oh dear . Her intruder chirps are pretty strong though
EJ still had a tiny portion of the fish tail left in her right talon. Just left with it . Eggs all alone - 5 minutes now :(

Phew ! Fish all gone and EJ back on eggs - just 8 mins on their own
And in comes Odin and settles down on eggs. Alarm over for the time being.
Ej obviously off finishing her fish and Odin now back on the eggs. He must be satisfied the intruder has been seen off. Great teamwork from the pair!
Just got back from the bank and the nest is empty, Cirrus reported empty nest 10 minutes ago, but Odin now back, phew. Missed the action again, hope Gary can find the right bit of video to post. EJ back too, some discussion going on.
Odin went, but EJ still not happy.

Battle not yet over !! EJ up on the feet again and intruder calling
In flies EJ, Odin is off, looks as though he might be chasing intruder away as EJ is alarm calling.
