Windy start to the day, forecasting the autumnal season. Large sticks on the nest arranged dutifully by Odin. One fish delivery to Willow from EJ but that was all that was seen on the nest. Both boys are flying to and from the nest easily now, with and without fish. I always marvel at the miracle.
Wind can be heard blowing up during this capture of the nest and its arrangement of sticks. Will we see X marks the spot this year?

Too right, MIKE - I forgot to pick up on that ;-D
I couldn't see if Rowan took the fish, I expect so - there didn't look to be a huge portion left:
A few minutes later Willow flew:
But he's back now:
IMAGICAT
Willow has flown.
EJ on the nest, followed by Odin, she's mantling over a fish.
Am I sure that's right?
Yes.
She's flown off and back again. Intruder - not too threatening?
She's flown again, leaving Odin posing at our end but with his head turned away.
She has flown and he is posing:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
He has flown.
It was a fish gift from Odin, accompanied by a mild intruder alert. Odin stayed a while and has flown now. I'm doing an edited highlights ;-)
Yay! It's my little mate:
