Hi everyone, not seen much of the action yesterday as I have been on and off the computer. Believe it had its moments though.
All quiet as all three GEM's are sleeping and EJ must be roosting in a tree nearbye.
Not sure what the weather is doing, it sounded like a shower earlier.
Happy viewing, see you all in the morning.

Just back and fed after my day out doing 'doggythings'. So glad that we are back to the usual format of this forum! thanks to all for info and pics. My day didn't go well and it's great to hear all the good news about LG.
STOP THE PRESSES One of the chicks ( I think #1) is eating a fish with very little difficulty . It has it's foot on the fish and has the head twisting motion perfected . Was the fish a left over

Looks like one of the GEMs has got the hang of feeding itself! :-)

EJ arrives with a big brown trout herself
there should be enough for all
EJ just brought a fish. All are lined up including #1 who left the remains of it's fish to let EJ feed it
Yes, yes, BarbaraJean I saw that . Wonderful. And no - Odin just brought it in and EJ (presumably) in the camera tree leaving the youngsters to it !

Barbara Jean: It is amazing how quickly they learn - the youngster was eating just like an adult. Now abandoned it as EJ has brought supper.
And now EJ has just arrived with a fish. :-)
Oh, I thought it was Odin , sorry, EJ brought the fish . OK
Sorry, a bit confused here - who brought the fish that the chicks were eating themselves? Then EJ shows up with a big brown trout. Is that it? which means fish 6??? for today? . I really must get a brain. :)
I thought there were two fish, one from Odin which he left the kids to deal with, then another from EJ, bringing the day's total to 6.
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
