Evening/morning all; Just setting this up before I fall into bed. Do hope the cam gets fixed soon. Thanks so much for all the updates/pix.

Thanks DjoanS she certainly looks a bit soggy poor thing. Seems to have stopped now so hopefully Odin will bring fish to cheer her up and of course feed the little ones.

15.44 and our hero Odin brings a fish, thought he was on his way for the little chirps EJ was making. Now watching 3 beautiful chicks being fed and talked to by EJ.
Rain has stopped for the moment. Odin has just flown in with fish delivery and is peeping to EJ. EJ was up pretty quickly and started to feed and is now feeding the family. Such a lovely scene.

Fish delivery ... all lined up to feed ... Tiny at the back though! Have to get used to listening for sounds again now :-))

hadn't realised how much I missed the live action until now:)
2 oldest getting fed now but looks plenty for the "little guy" in a second (hopefully)
Feeding time at 15:45. The little one at the back is so tiny!!
If nothing goes right, go left! :-)
Spoke too soon, the rain has started again. The youngest chick is trying to get some food but is not having much success at the present. The eldest seems to be getting the lions share at the moment but perhaps this is normal and she will feed the other two afterwards. She is certainly hungry herself.
Did the weeone get anything?
Bother had a phone call so missed most of the feed, as I came back EJ was tidying up and quickly brooding again as she must have known rain was coming. Hope the little one is OK and I thought I could still see a bit of that fish left.
Yipeee! Live cam again. Just came on and had a quick look at the 'live feed' page, so surprised to see EJ there looking damp and listening to Radio Chaffinch again.
