Hi folks, its been a day of contrasts. Eldest has enjoyed his freedom by flying backwards and forward to the camera post and then landing on the nest. The other two have been doing exercising but as yet have not taken their maiden flights.
Only 2 fish late afternoon and then one very small one in the evening. They are keeping them lean and kean so to speak.
Two are asleep on the nest and the eldest is on the cam post, I think.
Happy viewing, see you in the morning.

Thanks Cirrus
That was a big fish EJ brought in ... I wonder if #1 can finish it? Or what will happen to the remains .... perhaps it will keep it under its foot for later :-))

Thank you Cirrus. Hope you have time to look in later on. Now whats all the racket about?
Odin brings in a fish and guess what - eldest wants that one too!
Thanks Cirrus. I was wondering if 'Titch' may have had a go to take the fish and I was afraid what the outcome would be !
Odin arrives with a fish
Odin with another fish .. lets see who grabs this one! EJ is back there's one and half on the nest now ......... (thats number 5 for the day i think) xx
EJ shouting ... is Odin on his way? Yes ... with a fish that another young one took!
Goodness! 1st - lots of food calling - then EJ suddenly plonks back onto the nest. She looks at the fish held by#1 - but there is a standoff!
Then, just when wondering what will happen, there are 5 birds on the nest as Odin returns with a fish. Lots of shouting! He has flown off now...
has No1 flown off while i was not looking? leaving a fish each for the others?
EDIT - nope - hes hiding off cam on the left
No that was Odin, ghengis.
The nest looked very crowded with five ospreys on the nest!
