No sign of a suitor yet - of any degree of suitability, let alone of the standard we expect for EJ. Many of us have still not written off Odin the Magnificent. We can only wait.
Yesterday EJ went thru an animated, busy phase, bringing 3 sticks to the nest. Here she was, Persil white and woodland brown, absolutely gorgeous:

There's a short video of her ins 'n outs with sticks 'n chirps HERE.
We're still waiting for the first fish on the nest.

Morning all, thanks for all the lovely captures. Forecast for later in the week is snow so hope any suitors are fast approaching and that EJ eats well, while she can!
So glad you caught EJ just befoe she left the nest. Moffer!
I tuned in on my phone just as she came forward, stared deep into the camera and then flew. It's as if she knows we are here watching her...

EJ is back on the nest
Yipee EJ is on her nest, 1st time I have seen the beautiful girl live,since she came home, so off to watch her, BBL.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Catlady, I am so pleased you have at last seen her for yourself.
Funny isn't it how, although there are loads of beautiful captures, it is just so special seeing her yourself "live" on the cam.
EJ must have to flown to the cam post in a freeze. Se jumps down.
Looks like she's cleaning her beak.
I have pics, but can't post them :( Lots of long freezes for me on VLC
She was feaking earlier & it looks like some tiny morsel is still hanging from her beak. Ian

& @ 11:35:
2016: first time in history an Osprey nested in the NL. 2018: 2 active nests! 2019 a storm interferes. 2020: a third active nest in a tree!
It's somewhat poignant watching EJ, as she looks towards cam post and the dead tree, almost as if she is wishing Odin were there
It's so slow at the moment, I can't post any pics. Might need to reboot
Edit: that hasn't worked!
