Yesterday brought lots of rain so the family sat on a damp nest, especially in the evening, but it is not raining now. The great news is that Trip Advisor awarded Loch Garten a Certificate of Excellence! I was not able to join yesterday, so thanks to all for the report contributions.
Here is the short DU SUMMARY of Tuesday June 14 for BNN.

She just took a break.
Dave flexing:
Yes, I'm back online. It was all their fault! Of course!!!
MOFFER, I've had to make a new folder for those snaps "SoakingWet".
Good morning, MIKE, nice to see you holding the fort :-*
IMAGICAT
So unfair! :'(
:((
Birdie Num Num's brilliant DU summary 2017
Good morning Moffer, Scylla, Mike, Clare, Patily, Lmac and everyone.
The weather is still the same and EJ is still in the same position. :-( Not a happy sight.

She must be exhausted
She is certainly demonstrating again what a strong and determined bird she is. The chicks could have no better mother.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
She is fantastic indeed! :-)
I'm glad Odin managed to bring in 3 fish yesterday, the last one at 17:03. He must be struggling to fish in this weather. I wonder if EJ will try? Her younger chick is now 27 days old - I think her record is fishing when her youngest was 30 days old, back in 2012.
27 days old already?!? Gosh, time flies.
Thanks for the updates. Did she not go fishing early in 2008 with eldest chick at 24 days old. Youngest died and survivors were Nethy and Deshar
