Hi everyone and especially to Annette in SoCal - have posted a last note that I was starting new thread, hope that helps.
As you can guess, its raining or has been raining and EJ is soaked but managing to keep the wee ones undercover. I'm not sure how many fish were delivered yesterday but there were a few.
Rain seems to have eased and EJ is having a little stretch at the moment.
Happy watching to all of you around the globe. See you in the morning.

Thanks Lynette, for starting us off.
Thanks for all the reporting, back home from a few days away so should get some quality viewing in, for a few days anyway.So good to read the progress and see the captures. Those chicks are growing by the hour!
EJ asleep on the nest.
3.10am and EJ is getting no sleep. Those chicks are moving constantly under her. Bless:)
I'm off to bed myself so catch up tomorrow
Thanks Lynette. Poor EJ's being tossed around as though she's on horesback tonight!
Smiles, Jan.
Evening all: Yes, thanks Lynette. Nice to know where I am, what I'm doing and when I'm doing it. :-)
Quiet on the nest, except for muffled peeps from, I suspect, the chick that's been wriggling away, as in "Mom, you're sitting on my head!" (with a Scottish accent of course).
I'm still having the same problem with the video freezing now and then - sound may stay on or go off too. All a bit odd. Has anyone else had this problem?
Color! And is that rain I can hear? Looks misty and damp....
Intruder alert! EJ mantling and calling and looking around.
Cirrus: She does sound hoarse!
EJ plus 2 rumps and 1 head. The nest looks fresh and clean. Radio chaffinch.
I don't remember it raining so much last year. Do you?
EJ looks miserable keeping that position to shelter the chicks.

Hi AQ and Barbara Jean: I know I'd feel miserable if I had to hold that position. I don't remember the rain, but not sure I'm a good guide...
