[HAD TO GET HERE BEFORE SCYLLA - TEEHEE] It was a hot day for panting Odin and EJ, but Odin managed a good sized headless trout for their breakfast. Great pics of EJ on the nest, with beak wide open calling, and while talking to her eggs (can they hear anything now?). Crows are still a problem - they seem to be watching the nest for fish, I think, though EJ is rightly protective of her eggs. Here's a variation on a theme. :)© RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx Wild

Thank you for all comments and snaps - what a gorgeous enlargeable EJ that was from CC - saved!;)

Yes, EJ got up and left @ 0610hr and Odin flew by and around and landed - chirps and flaps from both of them :)
1m32s
A glary fuzzy time of the morning.
EJ up and flapping:

That was a lovely big fish, complete with head too! Thank you Scylla!
No change on the nest. EJ is still facing the far side.
Edit: Oh, I now see you said it was headless. I saw the red and thought it was gills! What do I know - perhaps I need to go to Specsaver!

I'm back. EJ just has a comfort break.
Did EJ bring any fish back for Odin? Scylla will know, cuz she's a star.

EJ has flown for a comfort break, and returned
Afternoon all, lovely viddos and updates again, thanks. Sheila we have indeed had some great sunny weather so long may it continue! My what a noise when she gets a filsh, a combination of excitement and hunger and away she goes to eat it.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
It's hot in the afternoon sun!
You will probably be gone by now Sheila,
EJ is still panting in the sun.....
Thank YOU SCYLLA - for the changeover video from this morning, lovely fly in from Odin. Also for the Fish Delivery, a lovely whopper for EJ, I am happy now, and I bet EJ is too

Very warm indeed!
There is still a bit of a cool breeze where we are Moffer, and was 15-16 deg. when we were out at lunch time. So hopefully its the same up there.
Forecast for the week for Boat of Garten.
Up for a flap, preen and scratch
and back down
