Hi everyone, happy viewing through the early hours.
Barbara Jean posted a pic on yesterdays diary (at the end) of the chicks in May, compare them to now, they are young ospreys not those fluffy little bundles anymore.
EJ and her brood are sleeping, all is at peace.
See you all in the morning, night, night.

Good grief they are eating again!!
4 fish by 8:30 am !
#1 is not eating. Maybe it realizes it doesn't need to eat until it blows up
The other two are eagerly grabbing food as if they have not eaten in ages.
Does anyone know the record weight for a 1 and 1/2 month old juvenile?
They will be 1 and 1/2 months old at ringing time when they are weighed
I think Odin has supplied more fish this year and he did an outstanding job last year.

Morning all - I saw the family eating and thought "Oh good they've had a fish" ... and then I read the posts and discovered that this is fish #4 ... utterly amazing! Maybe Odin is aiming to break his record today :-)

Fish #4 must have been quite big ... the last young one has just given up and EJ is still eating!
The chicks are all full and EJ is finishing the fish. While she is eating she is food calling , but it sounds like she is calling Odin to come and get some of it LOL
EJ seems to be having trouble finishing that fish too .... she keeps stopping! Looks like she's at the tail now ... and she's telling Odin to go fishing again :-)
Hi, morning everyone, just logged on to find that 4 fish have been delivered so far, sounds as though he's going for the record today.
The 2 young ones are all zonked out and EJ is finishing off the last fish.
By the way, thanks for the posts and all the action pics, they're great.
EJ has started shouting again and has disturbed the juveniles who are now awake and preening.
Morning all and thanks for the fish by fish commentary this morning. 4 fish already, perhaps he is going for his record today or just wants to get all the fishing out the way so he can perch in his favourite tree later and watch the tennis and footie on SKY.
