Poor EJ, contending with wind, corvids, and a mate intent on nestorising and bonking and making her wait until well past 4 o'clock for half a fish!
And to cap it all, in the evening the pesky piney brought her to the nest, where she still stands, on guard.

EJ calls for fish
but gets this instead
Birdie Num Num's brilliant DU summary 2017
Oh, dear Odin is such a poser. Thank you Moffer yet again for your wonderful snips. Thank you too Valerie for the vid of this morning's intruder. The first such incident this year - worthy of note perhaps!
When I was checking the vid, I convinced myself that this was a Darvic ringed bird, not just a BTO ring. I am not sure of the colour though. It could be white, it could be blue, or it could be a sun bleached yellow! Darvic left leg = Scottish
What do you think.
It's so difficult to catch, but it is ca 25s-26s in.

EJ is silently doing a spot of H/W

Scylla the monster MC with the lone overnight vigil, thank you. xx
Sheila, I think you are sharp-eyed and correct. It looks like blue Darvic, considering the yellowish color cast of the general cam pic. Pity we can't read it, but thank you for the reminder that Blue Darvic (left) = Scottish bird.
And....GOOD MORNING all! I am temporarily here, as it is a work day for me. Thank you all for keeping up on the goings on. I hope Odin brings a fish soon.

Hi Sheila and CC. My internet went down :o(
Your right Sheila, there is a Darvic. Dreadful enhancement but look at this
I hope the VC are able to read the ring!! Exciting if they can, but I dare say it will be some time before we hear, sigh.
EJ has been quite for a while now.
I must go - giving my pint of blood! BBL
Moffer, that is just about as clear as can be imagined of both BTO and Darvic. It does seem blue to you as well? Bye Sheila, I must go now, too, even though I'd much rather sit here with coffee gazing on beautiful yellow-colored EJ, marveling at her patience.
I would say Blue darvic too.
I'm in and out but recording, in case we miss something.
FISH @ 13.07 but Odin stood in the way, so no good view
Odin is still on the nest ( a few snaps from then 'till now)
Honestly, my internet has been up and down like a yo-yo today :o(
