Hi all. Fingers crossed the cam will be fixed soon.
WOW 5 fish before 2 P.M. !
Super Odin is certainly doing an outstanding job.
With that much food when the older chicks are full there will be plenty left for the littlest one.
How lucky for EJ and us that Odin was just passing through last year and decided to stay.

Great news isn't it Barbara Jean and especially Odin's haul so far today. Looks a bit dark up at LG at the moment, hope they are not going to get a lot of rain.

Bad news is that it will not be fixed for a couple of days but the good news is that Odin has delivered 5 fish before 2.00 so far today. This is definitely the Odin of last year. David is going to post as often as he can to let us know what is happening on the nest. What a nice man, it must be so busy there that he could well do without this problem.

If it rains EJ has plenty of left over fish to feed the chicks. Birds and animals know when bad weather is approaching. Caroline said EJ was calling for more food and she had 3 left over fish piled up. Maybe she is just stocking up incase Odin can't catch much in the rain . She is a smart bird.
Barbara Jean: Amazing creatures (who knows how we'd fare if we had to depend on our instincts and fishing skills - don't even want to think about it!). Margobird: Thanks for Rothes update. I almost forgot there were other EJ chicks out there! Off to do stuff; back later.
Thanks to margobird lindybird,barbara jean, gary, lynette annette . and evrybody else I have missed out. What a crew you are keeping us all up to date with the goings on. And it is sooo much appreciated. Nice to know family are coping withoutus :)) I have got so many chores done this week and trying to chase starlings from the garden in a nice way. But there was a baby starling crying for food and then an adult jumped on it and I went racing out to chase it away. Now i have to stop putting food out for birds and find a rat proof feecder but I think the table in the garden might do. I don't mind the rat as long as he doesn't bother me. I live by a burn so they are expected.
Nice to know also they are all being fed so I can carry on with "thing" that have to be done. Blethering again. Thanks again everybody for all the info!!
Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.

In two years we may be blessed with Rothes ( Garten and/or Mallachie's ) return. That would be a stop the press moment for the center and us
tish I too have got some chores done in the garden, go out about every half hour and do a bit more but would not have done if the live cam was up and working. Great news anyway today and plenty of fish at the moment.
Going to log off until this evening now as must do something about a meal for OH when he arrives home later.
