I'm trying to think what the heck to say, and to recall yesterday's sparse events :-/
Was last night the last of EJ the Diva's vigils? (No, she wasn't singing.)
But she left at daycam, after calling, flying in GJ's direction. Is this to be our last sight of EJ leaving after a night on the nest?
In the morning EJ did some minor nestorising and was occupied defending ~vs~ an unseen intruder, and Moffer passed on Alison's observation that GJ had muscled in!
(Taken from Moffer's snaps, and overly brightened to show EJ's face.)
.
For the rest of the day we saw nothing of EJ or anyone else - apart from Moffer's delightful "young Redstart?" :-*
We (CC an' me) are thinking that the first day of June might be a good time to start the off-season thread, all things being equal. All views welcome.
========================
The Daily Update is for recording - with comments, snaps and videos - today's events on the nest. Banter is permitted ;) General osprey questions and discussions should be posted in the Osprey Chat thread.

I hope EJ turns up for all the other DUpdaters today.
