Hi everybody.
We've had an eventful day with Odin bringing in 5 fish and intruders trying to land on the nest but being chased off by EJ.
All is quiet on the nest except for fidgiting from the chicks who are keeping EJ awake. She has her back to us at present and is looking toward the right of the picture. One little one has just been obliging over the far end of the nest.
Happy watching, see you in the morning. night, night.

It looks like theres been another delivery. EJ is feeding 3 hungry chicks, all getting their fair share. It looks like '1 is nearest the camera as pin feathers are beginning to show more, like brown and white spots on the back and towards the far wing area.
EJ now settled down with full chicks mostly underneath her.
Interesting seeing their plumage appear, bit by bit, Lynette.

Morning All. Late looking in this morning and have missed all the action. Thank you for comments, pictures and Alan for the delivery clip.
Well done,Alan. Margobird and Cirrus will be able to see that, later.
Thought one of them was about to take aim at the camera - very pleased to see it turn round to shoot!
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
'Morning all and very many thanks for such great pics and posts. Although, I've read it all twice but brain won't switch on - is it Two or Three fish so far? Anyway, brilliant going Odin. And now off to view Alan's video. Just back from eye hospital and all is going well in that department - certain drops needed no more nor the night cream and back to see my Optician NOT the hospital in a weeks time. Sigh of relief.
My word, youngest got a good tuck in there! Thanks for that Alan. And now to copy some of Lindybird's and Djoan's images. Thanks girls. Great stuff.
