What an uneventful day we just survived :o We heard that the cold weather accompanied by high winds all day prevented many birds from carrying out their usual fishing routines, and GJ was among them... until evening, when he turned up for the first time on-cam with a very fine fat headless fish.
This could be compliments of MOFFER or LIMPY, who both posted a similar batch of snaps. It shows the girth of the fish very well.
The rest of the evening was plagued with cam up-n-downs but it seems to be steady now.
EJ has looked rather doddery, maybe the windiness kept her off-balance. She has settled with a good tail portion of fish for company, only the fin showing at midnight;

Edit: Lets go of whatever it was I was holding onto to say...... 'thankyou for the excellent day intro Scylla' :-)

Sorry, Trying, am empty-headed tonight, that was a struggle.
EJ is fidgety so far tonight, and did another egg-turn as I started typing now.
Heart did a flip as I made the front egg into two ;)
OK, only 3 thank goodness!
Definitely THREE!
Sitting still but not for long, as remarked above:
Not as much flesh on that tail as I thought.
Still enough for a breakfast snack though.....more than she got yesterday for breakfast
It is still raining but only the odd streak is showing up.
A flyer rose up from under the front of the nest and wiggled out of the top of the screen:
Oops, I've cut this one off:

Hey there night watch team, how are you doing?
Was just catching up on yesterday's uneventful day until the whopper fish supper - glad he finally delivered!
EJ just went for a little wing stretch around 2.04ish

EJ got up for a small poop and had a much better flap :)
"EJ's been preening out feathers... and trying to put them back? ;-)
"EJ acquired a little passenger for a moment":
I've wilted...will leave you to it Scylla. :)
I know a 'dawn' capture is in good hands. CYA
