For those who didn't have time to go thru yesterday's DU pages (even tho there weren't as many due to it being Moffer's birthday and she was missed), here is a lovely snap of EJ with #1 (those wings! and where was #2?!) which Moffer posted from RSPB Operation Osprey's Facebook page:
At least 3 fish and some intrusions yesterday, each dealt with appropriately.
This was EJ returning from the briefest of flyarounds @ 0022hr:
Not a lot of sleep, but some, so far.

Good morning Scylla and Mike. Thanks for the early morning reports. It looks to be a lovely sunny day there at LG. Odin has delivered a huge fish and the chicks are well fed. A good start to the day.
You were right Scylla. The female Cuckoo 'laugh' is very well heard on your vid.
I also think that #2 is starting to 'beef up' Good for him :)

Didn't see you there, MOFFER! What with RSPB website & tech problems and owlet drama on both sides of the Atlantic, and tiredness, "fraught" is an understatement. I happily leave our precious ospreys in the capable hands of the Day Crew :-)
Another feed is underway. #2 is getting the lions share, and #1 well, lazy is an understatement!
All becomes clear, Scylla - a past poster put up this page on the Community!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

A happy well fed nest (with fish to spare) in the sunshine.
Just what we like to see!
Little one has just crawled out of the nestcup to lie in EJ's shadow
