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.

Looks like another fish arrived and mum is off, All three watched where she went. Maybe someone can confirm another fish.
All quiet, 2 home alone, 3 must be about, probably on the cam post.
Lynette - Certainly looks as though there was a fish but can't confirm it as I was logged out for a while.

Good reporting, thank you M Lake. Did you notice if all three ate from the fish delivered at 13.00 ?
Good pics thanks Lynette - your're always on the ball there
Actually eldest is on the nest at the very edge on the left hand side out of camera view, I just saw a stick move and a head appear, which has gone now 1 up and stretching, the other still sitting. Now the eldest has joined the group. He seems to like it on the left hand side.Thought he might take off but no such luck.
Afternoon all ... back from my trip to town .... thanks for reports and pics. I can't get the live camera just now .... only the stills one :-(

Eldest just visible on left hand side. One still taking it easy and #2 preening.
EJ back and moving furniture and tidying after the kids. Has now left again and some shouting for good going on.
EJ arrived on the nest and all three were up expecting a fish, but no such luck. She just started to move a huge branch about.
Afternoon DjoanS EJ had just spent some time furniture shifting. As soon as she flew off one of the youngsters started moving it all again. Chick 3 just taken off for a flight.
