Quite windy at LG at the moment. EJ managing just to keep all chicks warm.
Odin delivered 6/7 fish, not quite sure. Fairly uneventful except for the times when the chicks were scoffing their food. Makes for amusing watching
Happy watching to all early morning viewers
Strange sounds coming through the mike, sounds like firecrackers going off, hope its not shooting in any way or form. Could be the sound of fireworks. Certainly got EJ listening and watching something.

imagine if we left 3 toddlers alone and they would be so well behaved as the chicks
EDIT: EJ just brought another branch for the fence. She is determined to build that fence as high as she can .

Hmm. Chick #1 up for a poop and big stretch - and flap! Now has settled. Titch is now awake and peeking over her siblings bottoms. And here comes EJ with a huge branch. Drags it nonchalantly across all the chicks' backs!! Hey Mom. where are you going with that thing? Rear left of nest, that's where! Now EJ has settled down again.
Indeed Barbara Jean. Maybe the secret is that they're all still half-asleep.
Barbara Jean: Any idea what that bird is?
Cam has just gone down - now back again. Was that me or them? Never mind. All quiet on the nest.
OK guys. I can't keep my eyes open and am off to bed. Hope someone else is watching to see that first fish arrive! Take care all.
Breakfast 6:37. It only looks like 1/2 a fish.
If nothing goes right, go left! :-)
EJ brining in more stick and she's going to start bashing the young about again lol
lol She snapped a twig off with her beak because it was in the way.
Thanks for overnight / morning comments and Sandra for the pictures. We have started with ½ a fish !
