Hi folks, can't say I've seen much action yesterday as I was in and out all day. Not sure how many fish were delivered but I believe fish were left on the nest for the youngsters to try and feed themselves. A valuable lesson to be learned, but whether it succeeded or not, not sure.
At present our teenagers are fairly inactive. EJ is probably roosting nearbye as the nest is getting overcrowded with their huge sizes
Happy viewing to all our overseas watchers, and to the homies, see you in the morning.

Could the darker one be wetter? Now mooching around as if it wants to join in, but no, just admiring the view. She is watching her figure, like teenagers do. LOL Hope she doesn't decide to go vegetarian.
Edit OK, it's #2, thanks Baraba Jean.

#2 has been larger than #1 for quite a while. #'s 1 & 2 seem more interesting in wing exercises, but they are old than Ttich

Difficult to believe that they are so young - that one at the back looks ready to take off any day soon - hope they get them weighed, ringed and tagged in time!
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
All three tucking in. Nay, OG, they'll never take off. They need a personal trainer. LOL
Barbara Jean: I can't get over how you can keep track of the birds while I'm bleary-eyed and can never seem to remember the markings or what anyone said about them. Also, can't even post a shot. :-(( Maybe I need to go to osprey-watchers-training camp before next season. :-)
Off to bed folks. Happy viewing.
