EJ is having a funny moment. Chicks tucked under her.
Happy watching, back in the morning.

Unknown said: It was "brilliant" of the center to set up this forum. With viewers in all time zones there is always someone on-line to relate the happenings on the nest . Before the forum we were all pestering the center for news on the activities and number of fish deliveries each day :) Now the center only needs to write a blog to inform us of activities we can't see.

agree wholeheartedly. EJ just gone for a break, chicks having a bit of exercise before she's back.
As soon as EJ left #1 quickly asserted their dominance against first #3 and then #2 who both submitted immediately.
I've repeated myself, sorry. keeps coming up as server error time out but the posts still come up. Gremlins in the pipeline.
Little ones had a bit of a squabble but peaceful now, cheeping to each other.
Back comes EJ with a stick, bolstering up the fortifications, need it now with them getting more adventurous.
In comes Odin with a whole fish, EJ quickly takes it from him and begins feeding the chicks. Odin looking on at the moment.
The chicks are ready for their meal, first I think since early this morning. He's managed to get one at last.
Off Odin goes and leaves the family to feed.
Odin delivers a small fish:
Good afternoon all just logged in and saw Odin fly in with a fish and 3 chicks more than ready to be fed. Logged in for about 15 minutes this morning to see EJ sitting in the rain sheltering her chicks but was pleased to read that they had an early feed and another one a little later. Of course you can guess who is at the front of the queue as usual but I agree that this year feeding time is a lot more civilised up to now.
Thanks to all for all the news yesterday and pics which I am now catching up with. Enjoyed our Strictly Come Dancing Show The Professionals, only wish I was as fit as they are. Have a few hours now to osprey watch and a bit of time tomorrow morning and then it will be sometime Wednesday after I have been to see if I need hearing aid before I can look in again.

EJ now sheltering them from the rain after their feed.

THANKS Alan I missed this feed. Odin was carefully watching as the fish disappeared :) Was there any fish left for him?
