EJ looking at the camera at the moment, watching what I think is a feather stuck on the lens? Just turned round and is just resting as best she can.
Happy watching to all the earlybirds.
Night, night, back in the morning.

Lindybird: I suppose it isn't that surprising that they are growing at the rate they are when you see the amount of fresh fish they've been putting away.
Lindybird: I posted a few days ago that we appear to have a rerun of last year with the chicks. I wouldn't be surprised to see three females again this year (or if like me you still think Mallachie was a boy, then two females and the middle one a male).
Thanks to Barbara Jean for the reminder of the tiny chicks only a few short days ago.....
#1 is still eating! That was a big fish and they've nearly polished it off.
Just finished eating again and all zonked out. EJ was chirping gently and Odin comes flying in for the remainder of the fish. Off he goes to have his fill. Such a lovely domestic scene.
Odin tweeted from whatever tree he was in, then came onto the nest and stared fixedly at the remains of the fish in EJ's claw! She let him take it, and off he flew, just missing the head of a chick as he left.
It's a shame we haven't got pics from last year to compare their progress. Still, next year we will!
EDIT: Odin in for the remainder of the fish. I bet he thought there might be more left!
All peaceful now, and EJ doing her yoga again.
Unknown said: Three not so little ospreys all in a row. All very civilised (guess who's in the middle?): Sorry, a bit late but what a great pic, Sandy!
