It may be Mother's Day here, but the sentiment is still somber. ~Limpy's morning pic EJ was home with no visitor but GJ for his early morning stopover and then a duck (scylla's vid)! Around 5 pm yesterday afternoon, EJ left the eggs for about an hour and a quarter, during which time the cam was unreliably up and down. Though the eggs were still intact on her return, and it isn't clear where she went and what she did, it marks her willingness to leave the eggs for a long time. In fact, earlier, she did leave for about 20 mins....(scylla's vid). Probably she did not have a fish during her long break, but it does seem she benefited from being away. Will she go fishing by the end of Sunday? Many of us are betting she will. Here she is for the record, nuttin' but buzz...© RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx Wild_______________________________________The Daily Update is for recording nest events only, allowing for banter, though—any questions or conversations can happen on the Osprey Chat thread.

Morning everyone. A bit wet this morning. EJ looks soaked, I don't think she's likely to go fishing at this time, but I'd love to be wrong.
Morning ALL - thanks for all the updates and captures.
Horrible day and presently EJ remains lying down flat incubating in the rain.
However, on a positive note, I suppose the rain could be beneficial to EJ keeping her sort of refreshed and hydrated.
Just read your post RINGER Devastated to read that most believe she hasn't eaten This is such an awful tragedy How much longer can she endure She is so remarkable
Morning all. What a miserable day at LG. Poor EJ sheltering the eggs, soaking wet.
She has flown, and back. Big flap and back down
So, no sign of GJ last night or this morning. Perhaps that will push EJ to fish. I hope so
A lovely white bottie shot and EJ flew - just for a brief comfort break.

She has turned around and we can see her face now
I really hope she can eat soon I carnt bare to watch her suffer after the awful watch last year.
The rain is heavier again
