Ej is resting and trying to keep the chicks warm but they are getting quite big now and it makes it harder for her to keep them under her breast at night..
At least now she seems to be catching a quick nap.

thanks Brenda H
Can hear that blessed Cuckoo again....
The housework has not all got done today, BrendaH, and I have jumped between the phone and the sink and the screeen, trying to count all the fish deliveries etc. !!
Watched this last year but am still agog as to how much bigger those chicks are already, its hard to believe that they only came out of the eggs only a few days ago, and now look at them. A good start in life for all three, and of course with parents like that, things look good. Fingers crossed for them all.
Good evening all and thanks yet again for all the updates and pics. Just a quick look again as OH needs table to finish off some work. I would think it has been very difficult for Odin to fish today so yesterday's 8 fish will have fed them up well and with the three so far today I am sure they are OK. They are so active as well, EJ has a difficult job now keeping them all underneath her. They are growing in leaps and bounds that is for sure.
