Hi everyone and especially to all the new bloggers. Welcome to our crazy site.
The day started off with webcam lost but came back in the morning.
Odin delivered 9 fish yesterday, equalling his record of last year for the most in one day.
Weather forecast for the East side of Scotland/England doesn't look too promising but lets keep our fingers crossed that all will be well.
EJ is settled on the nest and keeping her offspring covered as best she can.
Happy viewing and see you all in the morning.

Love this pic:
No BarbaraJean - when they migrate they will be poor fishermen at first and will need the fat/weight to sustain them on the way. They'll arrive in West Africa very much slimmer. But once they have fledged we were told on the official Blog that Odin will briing in fewer fish to encourage them to want to fish . It didn't work last year - they hardly flew anywhere but hey, it's a new year and feeding has been 'new' this year so anything could happen.
Pharazon - great . Thanks for the fish tally.
Gary - great video, for which many thanks.
We are such spoiled fans on this forum :)

OK right NOW - where on earth is the third chick?
He might have waited until half time!!!!
Alan Did you take that from the bridge outside Boat of Garten? Lovely pic.
Alan - the way Odin is going he may deliver another before the 2nd half starts ... but he'd better hurry, the players are coming onto the pitch!

Hi Everyone. Not been online until this evening so am reeling from the shock at what is happening at LOTL. Big hugs of support to everyone. And a special hug for Margobird
Just been reading through today's events and I see Odin has supassed himself yet again. Has it been 9 or 10 fish today? I'm a bit confused, but hey, never mind. Those chicks have been so well fed and looked after it is just a joy to see. Thanks for all the updates and pictures etc , especially to Alan for the lovely photo of the Spey.

Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.
Patriciat : I took the picture further downstream at the footbridge at Aberlour.
