  • I think 2 and titch are nest potatoes.  They snuggle up together  and look at each other as if to say "don't look at her he'll just keep doing it"

    Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.

  • Hiya Tish,are you well/  It was def having a ball in the wind   once the legs are back he'll be off.

    All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

    I'd put emphasis on the 'might be'  male, Soosin-- no one knows , so I'm sticking to my predicition of two females and Titch a male!

    Quite right Linda  -   I thought youngest was a male too. No idea why, : )

  • Afternoon all and such disappointing news although I can't say I am really surprised.  All 3 are so large now and very active in he nest and we would have been distraught if one of them had taken off in fright and injured itself.  Of course there is the safety aspect as well for those involved in the ringing and tagging.    We must be pleased however that EJ and Odin have managed to raise yet another healthy set of 3 chicks who this year have given us immense pleasure with their antics and also the lack of any serious sibling rivalry.  We will have to wait until next year and hope the weather will be a lot better.

    Just read it myself. At least now we know for certain and are not on tenterhooks any longer. Plus it has put an end to the inevitable bickering amongst posters in various places.

     

     

    ChloeB I totally agree with you.  I think we have to bow to the experts in this instance and obviously they left it to tell us that when they realised it was not going to happen this year.  Sad but we should be happy for the joy they give us.

  • I can hear EJ & she is food calling, although not on the nest....

  • Lindybird - I thought I heard EJ food calling ... glad you did too. I wonder if Odin is eating a fish or if she's telling him to go fishing!
