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

Heard chirpings from the nest ... EJ feeding the chicks, so I presume Odin has delivered another fish!

Odin arrives with a fish.
I heard it too -- it looks big enough to be a new delivery - hurray!
Just logged on again to find EJ feeding the family. Trying to go as fast as she can because of the rain. Chicks look a little damp. Good ol Odin, another delivery.
Now she's trying to settle them again as they're getting wet. She is a wonderful mum.
Looks like Odin snuck that one in under the radar. Doesn't look the biggest, though.
EJ says,"that's all you're getting for now ... get back under my umbrella!"
EJ is still spreading out her wings to keep them dry. Its been a wet day for them all.
Lindybird just been peeking in every now and then and just so thankful Odin has managed to fish for his family. Poor EJ must be soaked as must the nest. Hope she can keep the chicks fairly warm and dry overnight. Such a disappointment that the weather has turned so wet and not looking too good for the next few days. EJ has just left on a comfort break and I can't believe how big the chicks are geting. EJ just returned and the chicks saw her before she arrived and now I think they could do with another fish - just looked and EJ obviously has some left which she now feeding to them while it is not raining.
Goodnight all.
