Hi everybody,
Its been another eventful day, Odin has been a great dad and provided for his family as usual
Chicks are getting more adventurous in the nest.
EJ being a wonderful mum. Intruder has been about again but has been sent packing.
At the moment EJ is trying to rest but the youngsters keep wriggling about so disturb her.
Happy viewing, see you all in the morning.

It all started when chick #1 stretched a wing and disturbed Titch. Titch bolted straight up ready to fight. Chick's # 1& 2 got up to join in the fracas . After a minute or two Chicks # 1 & 2 decided to ignore grumpy and laid back down

Does anyone else have webcam trouble just now?
EJ returned and is calling
Fish delivery
Odin just delivered a whopper Rainbow Trout.
He hauled that huge fish all the way from the fish farm
Odin departs. Titch is getting fed. They are all very vocal this morn. Diane, I have had no probs with webcam. Just a crawley wandering across the lens. LOL.
No Diane: Although a few nights ago it kept freezing.
Now who showed up with what just now? EJ arrived with yet another stick (although at first I thought it was a fish); then she was immediately followed by Odin with a large fish. Chicks up and looking for breakfast. Odin leaves. All lined up and eating. Soooo much more pleasant to watch than last year (and a whole lot nicer than previous years, from what I gather from long-time LG watchers).
EJ is feeding herself and the biggie on her left. The biggie behind her, under EJ's tail is missing out.
The fish is so large and no doubt old it looks like it is tough . EJ is working hard to tear it up
They're all very close to the far edge of the nest; EJ will topple over if she's not careful. :-) Good grief, just got a look at that fish and it's HUGE.
