Well folks, its been a disappointing day in the fact that the three bairns will not be named,tagged or ringed but that has come from official lines as I hope all of you have seen and we have to acknowledge the expertise of the powers that be.Nevertheless, there has been a lot of wing exercising and mini flights on the nest during the course of the day. Not many fish were delivered, but hey, they have to get trim so they can fledge properly.
Paul, you will see that I have replied to you on the last of the posts for yesterday.
All at peace and sleeping with the odd plink plonk of what sounds like rain.!!!!!!!
Happy viewing and see you in the morning, night, night.

# 1 & 2 are taking advantage of the strong wind and helicoptering
#3 is laying on the nest watching with no interest in joining them in the wind and rain .
#3 is the sensible one

Now all three are laying down. #1 was crouching to keep it's balance against the wind
Hi everyone: Been super busy since first thing and just now catching up. A real shame about the developments (and 'nuff said about that twit on the Diary page - good grief!). I'm just amazed that they're all still on the nest - though for a few minutes there I thought we'd see one take off. Anyway, off to check LOTL while keeping one eye on our kids.
Stick delivery by EJ. Does she think that will keep the kids housebound?
AQ; They gotta be leaving any minute now (well, any day now). Can't believe they're all still here.
Annette - I keep counting them to make sure what I am seeing, one two, er, three.
Gym is over for now. Beauty parlour time.
When EJ left, they were all watching her so intently. They're watching something now. Gosh it's windy there again.
EJ has landed . . . and gone by the time I've typed that.
EJ back - and gone again.
