EJ appeared only once yesterday at the nest, in the early morning before disappearing. Then came a happy surprise when Moffer discovered that EJ had been photographed by Douglas McVittie, fishing at Aviemore, carrying one of her EJ whoppers! In the meantime, no one else laid claim to the nest. Though the roving camera regularly checked all of the usual perches during the day, and an osprey was spotted in the distance, she herself was not located. So we wait to see what new developments await us today, including FC8 or Double Trouble. And... hopefully, someone will eventually find out about the various ringed osprey that have shown themselves on EJ's territory.

EJ landed and right away "he" landed on her back and paddled briefly. He's now flown.

He got right down to it:
Can't be much doubt it's PU:
EJ is back with a couple of small chirps. Pottering.

That was a mini-mini potter, hardly worthy of the term.
This is how she still is as I type, except she's looking more in "Odin's direction" :(
The most lovely wing flaps from EJ, I hope you've got VLC running, MOFFER !!!
She's flown.

Some snaps while we wait for the expert ;)
On campost.
Onto nest with a flap.
Crouched into a still mantle.
Flattened!
