Another day closer to the first egg hatching and I'm pretty sure Odin is still sitting after EJ flew off for a break. I could be wrong of course. Eagle eyes amongst you early morning viewers may be able to put me right.

Watched the final 10 minutes of the chick hatching... just amazing... I was blown away, thanks again.

Afternoon Lynette. I can record the images OK this morning. I would suggest you stop/start Realplayer, then reboot the machine. If that doesn't work, may have to re install RP (I have the SP free version). Don't know if that helps

The chick at LOTL ate a few bits and then fell backwards on it's back. . Mother spent a minute or two studying the predicament her chick was in. Now Mother trying to rock it upright

Gary: Mains power is on now, but we had a short break in transmission of the webcam a while ago, and don't know if Odin brought a fish - if you saw one we must assume so!
gary a said: Morning all:) Bit later this morning so will catch up later but logged on to see Odin on the nest so I assume EJ may have had a fish. And, seems like the mains power has stopped that awful buzzing noise:) Congrats to the pair at LOTL:) Beautiful baby chick.

Afternoon Barbara Jean chick safely back under Mum now. At least it has had a meal and have to say it looks quite strong. The way it fought its way out of the egg was just amazing to watch.
I have tried my best - installed Real Player SP but it still comes up "unable to record" I will rely on your clips and all the pics from everyone else instead.
Odin flies in fishless and proceeds to move an enormous stick, EJ gets up and eventually takes off, leaving Odin to sit again.
Not quite sure what happened then - Odin appeared to have come back on the nest, EJ sitting, didn't want to move so in the end Odin flew off, quite touching to see them together.
