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.

The one not feeding does some more flaps while there is room on the nest, then a little housekeeping, before joining the foodline.
Now they are all eating . #1 decided the wing exercises could wait until after breakfast

That fish was quickly devoured. :-)
Its great to see how the youngsters are getting more steady on their feet every day. :-)

Scoff! Scoff! Scoff! All gone so quickly!!! One is still messing around with the furnishings. EJ on her perch.
EJ is on her favorite perch on the nest.
I remember when Odin hauled in that small tree and we wondered what was he thinking by bringing such a large branch. Well he clearly knew what he was doing. It has become EJ's favorite place to perch
Oh My she is calling him in again!
Here he is with fish #2
EJ screeching again. And here is Odin with FISH No 2. Good lad! He leaves
What's EJ on about now; got down from her perch to the nest and is making a racket. Surely not another fish?? Oh she's backing up again and - wow - another fish!! Geez. She grabbed it as if she hadn't eaten for days!! Is anyone saying "thank you" to Odin? Doesn't look like it. Off he goes. Fish #2!!
A quick second course:
I'm signing off now folks. Happy viewing everyone. And hope it isn't too hot in the UK tomorrow!
One is not hungry, but I can't tell who is who unless I see the length of the tails or the sides of the heads
By Odin bringing in fish in very short intervals It is clear he isn't needing to make 4-5 dives for each catch. He is has magnificent fishing skills too
