The wind had died down, no rain, hurah, and EJ is getting some kip with the occasional wriggle from the chicks.
Happy viewing to all our overseas watchers and see you in the morning.

Now gone over to night vision.
All quiet on the nest. EJ trying to get comfy and telling those chicks to stop wriggling about.
EJ awake and sitting quietly.
Now starting new thread if no-one else has.

The movement started with a forward tilt to stretch the wings, then standing briefly on the now straightened legs, before plonking back down again. This was repeated about 3 times while I watched.
