First of all, the cam went down around 3:30 pm and we don't know why yet.
Second of all, the committed VC volunteer Les made sure to respond to concerns about EJ's mateless condition, that few birds have been seen of late, presumably because of the nasty spring weather in Western Europe recently. And, just to put his money where his mouth is, CRinger has his hat ready to be grilled and duly consumed at the same time applying to become a space astronaut if not a one male has had the sense to hook up with our Beautifulnessnessnessness EJ by May 1.
And a new BLOG was published on wait times between arrival dates on the Loch Garten nest.
I can't help but post a beautiful shot of EJ's underwing by Moffer yesterday._______________________________________The Daily Update thread is for recording nest events only—any questions or conversations can happen on the Osprey Chat thread. Thank you!

The male is nestcupping
I can't believe how he's settling himself in - even nestcupping :o

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
EJ flew back in with it when she realised 'he' was in the vicinity, now she's flown off again to eat it :)
Looking good isn't he?
he has flown
He has flown.

Thanks!
He is certainly making himself at home. For those of you who were watching closely last season, does this young suitor look anything like the male she bonded with before she left last year?
Just tuned in to find the male present.
Good morning all! Great news. Thank goodness the camera was back up.
Birdies LG DU update.
