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

Very funny. He brings bark when EJ wanted fish. She was not sure about whether the bark was fish until she pecked at it. I think Odin is going to take over incubation. What a pair. :)

Odin flew off.... and returned!
Thank you ma-am. But EJ is not impressed with the bark

Nope, I am wrong - perhaps he is - oh yes, mating time... can't have too many eggs, har har.
My goodness, Odin. A piece of bark in exchange for nookie? You must have some amazing chat up lines my friend ;-)
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
Odin arrives with another piece of bark, trods on EJ's head and busily begins arranging the nest, LOL. I missed his trodding on her head part.© RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx Wild
Oh gosh, Odin!! You can't land on EJ like that! And then step on the egg! What's wrong with him??

Ouch. Odin landed on EJ's head/neck
and then moved sticks around. Most odd! Building up the barracades is a wee bit early, me thinks!
Thank you for the vid, CC!! What was the boy up to! We won't be able to see the next egg being laid at this rate!
Oh good, Sheila --- you got the moment. I was busy getting my fingers untangled while trying to catch video!
