Hi, all quiet on the nest, EJ must be close by in her tree, leaving the young ones the spread of the nest.
I think it was 8 fish in all yesterday.
Night, night, see you all in the morning.

By the size of the whopper she just hauled in she certainly hasn't lost her touch
She has not fished in 3 months and had no problem .
It probably felt good to her to be fishing again. Plus the refreshing bath her feathers got :)

I feel we must retain an 'Open Verdict' on Mallachie.... until we hear anything to the contrary.
Barbara Jean: Even my OH thought so, when I told him "she's been fishing!" - he pretends not to be interested much in all the goings on that I relate, but he said " she will have enjoyed that".....
Er is middle chick not getting fed or did I miss something. (body on the right)

I had Web Cam up but minimized and was answering some email when I heard her soft peeping. I brought up the screen thinking she had seen Odin in the area and there would be a fish delivery Then i saw the whopper under her foot and knew she had been fishing :)
#'s 1 &2 are full and as usual Titch is still eating LOL
Titch won't leave until EJ swallows the tail !
EDIT EJ just gave the tail to #2. It manage to figure out how to swallow it
Good evening all and logged in to find the youngsters enjoying a meal and a meal that EJ has flown in with. Perhaps she feels she should help Odin now as he has been awfully busy of late looking after his family. 2 seem to have had enough andTitch lying down to eat. Sounds windy still at LG.

I was actually studying the chicks when I heard the wings arriving, and expected it to be Odin - the chicks even looked surprised! EJ was holding the fish with both feet, so it was a fair size.
EDIT: Its going down a treat so Well Done EJ - Score now: Odin 6, EJ One !!!!!
Count me in I also think Mallachie will return one day. Just have good feelings about her.

How spooky was that. lol I don;t know how long she was away, But, like last year, she certainly know where to get the biggies. The chick DID look surprised, it was like they did a double take
