The moment we had all been waiting and hoping for. EJ seen at Rothiemurchus fishing and they posted a little FB video of her drying off (edit: video was from Tuesday)! Here she is with her fish on the branch below the nest perch back at LG, as reported on FB and Moffer. © RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx Wild
Sheila remarked she may not be around much for viewing now that she has sussed out the situation for herself. But it is merciful to us viewers, I think. That is all I think is fit to report! At the moment she has just turned the eggs before tucking her head back in to resume sleeping.

Is that a Twite out there, Moffer? ;-)
A little burst of calls from EJ... and more.
IMAGICAT
Good Morning SCYLLA MIKE and VIV
I see dear, concientious EJ is at her post and once again calling with no response
Flyby but I don't think it was anything like an osprey, and not a corvid, probably an innocent ;)
Hi Patily. Off on the roller coaster again!
Birdies LG DU update.
Good morning and thank you for the updates. What are the probabilities of the eggs still being viable after a day of no incubation? I don’t know whether to hope that EJ could train him but by the same token I don’t want the eggs to hatch. A conundrum for sure.
I wonder why EJ didn't accept the fish when she has been calling? I think between them EJ and GJ are deliberately rewritting the osprey text book
She just flew again. Chirps from unseen source.
She's back with a pipe.
Good morning, PATILY and JANE :) This couple (if we can call them that!) are really testing us!
To remind us:
The first egg, possibly a 'hormonal' egg has about 6 days to go. The remaining two 10 and 12 respectively if we take the 36 day point.
The viability of all is unknown of course.
