Not a good day yesterday. Still no Odin. Started out ENS, then an unringed intruder, then to our relief, EJ returned to the nest with a partially eaten fish, ate the rest on the Fish Perch. But later when it began to rain, she came back to brood the empty nest cup. She was a forlorn sight in the rain. A partial eggshell is still there, and she returned later in the evening and hunched over the cup again until the rain ceased before flying off again. Now ENS. Heartbreaking.© RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx Wild

Oh dear scylla --- please add your second intro above right there!

I do hope that no hint of facebookitis sullies the Daily Update. We are free to express our views - be they over-emotional, anthropomorphic, or (to the unscientific) cold-hearted - but we should not appear to aim personal criticism at anyone.
Here here scylla. Thank you --- it is that sentiment that can make us realize our potential as human beings, which may be not quite as good as being osprey, but pretty awesome nevertheless. xoxo

Too late but never mind.
I got rather upset catching up with yesterday's DU.
I've got to do my personal copy of EJ's evening, fingers crossed not too many freezes. Thank you for yours, CC :-*

Well that "New DU" post of mine at the end of yesterday's DU came in handy, CC - I was able to replace it with the video without raising the thread above this one ;)
I'll post it here, I know certain members will want to see how she behaved after they went to bed.
Lots of "dwelling".

It's very quiet now. Hope my speakers aren't deceiving me. And I need to reboot this laptop, it's alarmingly slow.
It's getting lighter and a little bird is greeting the morning - I'll have to do an audio:
Audio with "spaces" taken out, I may have made some bad cuts here.

Unringed intruder has arrived. With a piece of fish or not??? I am otherwise engaged, will put in daycam etc later.

Nothing underfoot after all.
Did he pull apart remains of dead chick?

Or was it a Nature's pompom in the nestcup? I don't think so.
