Not much I can say for now except to note that the pine marten has marked territory again on the nest yesterday. I wasn't around, but scylla captured some beautiful footage and shots of EJ leaving and coming down to the nest. I particularly enjoyed the vocalizations and her spirit, which seems not diminished in the least by the shadow of last season. We should all be so filled with the spirit of life and enjoyment of the moment! (capture by scylla)

Where has the time gone? I intended to check back much earlier and do a new DU if req'd. But you've done a lovely start to the new day, as always, CC :-*

I'm with you, CC, it rather stuck in ma craw to type "obs" last night, like losing an old friend.
The new cam (or rather stream) has been a bit flaky but we are so lucky to have its quality now, doing justice to our beautiful EJ. Just think what we've been thru! And not just with the dreadful picture - many a time (LG blogger's licence) MOFFER had to go and lie down with a migraine because of the dreadful sound interference, and people complained to me on YouTube - the present "generator" rumble is nothing to grumble about in comparison.

I can't make it to BC time, yet again :(
Here's to a rewarding morning for all.
Good Morning ALL Daily Updater's
Thanks CC for the lovely start off, very happy to see our old friend the "DU" back :-)
Sorry to have missed you again SCYLLA, obviously I need to get up earlier if I am to catch you.
I missed day cam as well. Needless to say EJ has not put in appearance for me yet. So I will do the rounds!
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
EJ on nest at the moment, no idea when she flew in though, as on other threads.
We seem to have a steamed up bit on the lens of camera this morning.
Yes EJ it's you I am talking to, can you please move to the left a bit away from that misty patch, we don't want your good looks being obscured in any way. LOL....
Its been a dream of mine for many years to see EJ on a nice clear webcam, so thank you, thank you, thank you to all concerned who finally made that dream come true, now webcam viewers can finally see just how truly beautiful she is.
Morning all.
I love the opening capture CC. Those wings - magnificent.
Lovely captures Mary - yes we are so lucky to have such a clear cam. So different from when I first started watching back in 2008.
Hopefully we will see a suitor here soon especially as we now know they are north of the border.
Please accept my apologies for the photofest of beautiful EJ..... LOL... I just cannot resist, and no one else seems to be around to take more of her, I might as well dive in. :-)
Mary. First egg at MB.
Birdies LG DU update.
