Well I don't often get the honour of starting a new thread, think it is only about the second time this season.
Rather than try to write out a round up of yesterdays happenings, it is much quicker to do a LINK to Birdie Num Num's brilliant SUMMARY report.
Our days of seeing EJ and the family are numbered now, it has been a fantastic season, and a productive one, with two healthy juveniles. Long may they fly safe and hopefully be sighted back in the UK in two years time.
It is an empty nest, but I can hear Odin or EJ alarm calling off nest. (SCYLLA yeah I have sound back) :-)
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
Back to one bird - Odin's fish has been successfully carried off:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

We have a juvie on the nest with a fish, sorry don't know when it was delivered as was in a buffer yet again.
Our remaining juvie has flown and look who's quick to arrive on the nest:
How beautiful:
The jays are fighting over the leftover fish! I would have said there was enough fish to satisfy both of them.
Good morning - I woke up to tech problems, am hoping I've got the early fish.
MARY, thank you for starting the day and I'm so glad you've got sound back :-)
Good morning, CLARE, how kind the Jays have been to us!
Good morning to PATILY and MIKE, even tho I haven't seen them (probably my fault).
Off to check recordings.

Willow spies FISH!
Buffer:
Willow has fish, deliverer gone:
Willow mantling:
Intruder? Or sibling? There were no alarm calls from EJ or Odin:
If it's not one would-be thief...
It's another:
Disaster for the 0746hr FISH per ODIN - no buffering, but I was resetting the recording sharing the screen and the whole thing therefore dimmed!
