We have had an absolutely fishin crazy day at LG. At least 9 fish were delivered by Odin during the course of the day. Its been a pleasure to watch the antics of the youngsters and alarm alerts as well.
All quiet on the nest at present, just a little fidgiting going on .EJ has her back to us, but turned round just then at the camera.
Sad news at LOTL, Lady is not well at all and we don't know what is going to happen during the night. She is an old lady and this may be her time, only time will tell.
Happy viewing to all our overseas visitors until we sleepheads join in and catch up with whats been happening during the night. Good night all.

I'll tell you a secret, Cirrus ! - on the still cam page it says that the picture is updated every two minutes - but I discovered that its more like once a minute! So if you keep refreshing, sometimes you can catch a good one! - a bit like fishing, really...
Nice to see them all lined up again..... look at those three proper tails, now....
Those chicks are still stuffing themselves, all lined up this time, can anyone tell who's who, because I can't anymore. They all look a similar size now.

Terry: I thought that last year's chicks were the most striking looking young ospreys I've seen - all three were proper lookers (who can be surprised though, with Odin as their father, and EJ as their mother). Can't wait to see how these develop in the coming weeks - they're really starting to look all grown up now.
I don't know where to click to include a post in the the reply but about your 'fishing tip' Lindy. LoL. :) I actually smiled. Thanks
I so agree with your comment Sandy. All three were very striking young Ospreys indeed. Mallachie very much like Odin in colouration and her sisters like EJ.
Managed to see the delivery this time and the chicks are looking really great. Odins constant supply of fish is maintaining their even and rapid growth. Chicks at Glaslyn have been ringed already so it wont be long before these 3 get their bling.
It's the only thing I know about fishing, Cirrus - if at first you don't succeed, just keep trying ;-)
- glad I made you smile!
We have night vision and they are still eating, at least one of them is and EJ is getting a fair share too.
Lindybird - I think #3 next to EJ, #1 beside it and #2 lying down stuffed :o) they all look stuffed, they are right wee rolly pollys now, great to see :o)
#1I think has just moved over behind #2 now :o)
Feel free to correct me if im wrong :o)
