EGG #1 has arrived courtesy of EJ & Odin [VIDEO courtesy of scylla], at about 19:00 yesterday! [pic courtesy of Moffer]. What else can one say? Thus begins a long time stint on the nest where we get to watch a season with the family! :-*
And here she is on the nest tonight, dozing yet watchful.© RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx Wild

Hi Moffer! Yes, Sheila, I read through that with dread and amusement, if that is possible. Two big fish offered and nothing for EJ in the kerfuffle! I had been a bit concerned that someone might slip into that deep egg cup and damage the egg, but an intruder is another story!
EJ looks contented sitting on her egg in the sunshine,

EJ's up for a flap, she's flown
EJ's back
VLC has frozen with her still looking at 'me'! LOL
Flown
and back
and Odin lande with a stick
While he tries to find a home for it, EJ stands up for a stretch
Nice to see a now familiar domestic scene, with Odin enjoying his incubating!
Hope the rain dries up.
Odin arrives with a stick....incoming
Odin looks around as EJ tries to move the stick away from her
Odin finally moves his new stick, and nearly falls in the nest cup
Odin's here - EJ has got up, so he's going to be allowed to incubate :) I expect, when they get their act together.
He's filling his time with stick-shifting.
