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.

Just looked in again ... and caught up with the fishless news! .... friend called in for a natter ... and we managed to do without biscuits and cake :-) Somebody is grumbling away on the nest.

Odin has arrived with a fish, #5 I think. Great excitement. Wing exercise first, eat after, all lining up.
Odin with a fish ... as he was coming in the chick standing next to EJ gave her a right hard peck on the head ... I thought it was going to do the same to Odin, but it thought better of it!
Odin arrives :-)

I just logged in to see them eating. I didn't see who delivered the fish .
Is this fish #6 for today?

Lindybird - I think your first pic shows the moment just before that chick gave EJ a hard peck on the head!
All taking fish from EJ:
EDIT: Seems to be the same pic, don't know what happened there.... thought I saw a 'chick' pecking everyone!

All three seem to be interested in the Odin Tea Time Special.
