Hello everyone,we have had a mixed day here at LG. Weather has been mixed but unfortunately no ringing, tagging and naming took place. We are still awaiting official word of when and if they are going to go ahead this year. As far as we know they will be R&T and naming them but when that will be is anyones guess. We will have to wait for the official confirmation and just be patient that bit longer.
The three are a bit restless, stretches, fidgiting, but at present are sitting low in the nest. Do take a look at ChrissyB's photo's in yesterdays blogs. Apologies if I've got the name wrong, I'm doing my best to remember who posted them.
After saying they were sleeping two are now up and wing exercising whilst one stays firmly sitting
Happy viewing and we await with anticipation what the morning will bring.

Morning, All: Peaceful scene on the nest as I come on, with EJ on her lookout branch to the right.
Morning folks. EJ was calling for a while but has given up now! I suppose if the kids aren't hassling her for the second course of breakfast she's not bothering to yell for Odin!
All getting a little restless now: more wingercising:
--lots of 'muttering' going on about food being late today...
edit: EJ is calling softly
morning all. So no fish so far this morning. all happy preening and picking away though.
Thought I might have logged to see chicks OFF the nest, alas no, Think it has to be really wet later as well. Thought there might have been a comment on the main blog to enlighten us again alas no.
All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy. Spike Milligan
Morning All, Brilliant read this mornining from overnight- Annette/ Heron/ AQ. Very funny visualising how you keep your eyes on the computer screen. Thanks to all for reports and pictures.
Odin brought a small fish at 7.26 am which EJ fed to GEMs very quickly.
Odin brought a small fish earlier. After she served the snack EJ has been trying to persuade him to go fishing again for a more substantial size fish, but she has not had any success with him .
Oh good, at least they had something. EJ standing at the edge of the nest looking very pensive just now.
