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.

I can't see but I think all the fish is gone. EJ is sitting on lumps and calling.
It's raining. Sounds heavy. One rump doesn't fit and its head keeps looking out !!!
Still raining. Quiet little moans. Where is the day shift? I have to go get tea.
Morning all. If I remember correctly, we had other worries than the weather at this stage last year, Remember the fishing line, though this may have been slightly later. I think those who live in that part of Scotland could probably confirm that rain is not unusual at this time of year. I know we've had some holidays in the area in June when weather was wonderful but just as many when we were cold and wet! EJ is doing sterling work keeping the babies dry and Odin, bless him, is a great food provider.
Either #1 or #2 has just been out from under Mum for a check on the weather but has decided it's more pleasant under the wings! Don't blamme him/her - the weather here looks very similar and I'm not looking forward to being out in it.
EJ just had a wing stretch --& as I write, Odin brings in a big FISH!!
Look who's first in the line-up!
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
Morning ALL and thank you for the overnight / morning reports.
It is not raining on the nest at this moment and EJ and the chicks are having a stretch. EJ has started calling.

Settled to usual order - #3 in the middle.
