GJ was seen twice yesterday - once in the morning when he and EJ met on the nest, and again in the afternoon when he turned up to help defend ~vs~ a talented intruder (and maybe her skydancing partner?) White DP.
She's a strongly marked female but not nearly as distinctive as EJ:

EJ did a little housekeeping in the evening, just to show us that she had prevailed.

Lovely portraits, scylla! What an exciting day. I looked in and saw reports for both White DP who is a lovely bird, and skydancing. Yikes. EJ and GJ are pretty funny. Mystifying and funny (both haha and odd)...

It may be nearly daycam already :o
Got waylaid by tech, so here is...
DAYCAM 02:50hr:
No activity seen yet - don't know about voices, the sound has been muted while I tried to chill (asking the impossible!).
Goldy phase:
Lemony phase:
It looks more lemony on the recording laptop, never mind :)
An osprey is shouting distantly.
Well it stopped a little while ago but had gone on persistently for some time. No-one appeared.
Sample:
Good Morning Scylla and to all who follow.
Thank you for the start off and the lovely Portraits in fading frames.
I was thinking about you melting in the heat down your way Scylla, plus the heat of MC, hope you can keep cool in some way.
I will continue with a "Whitey" photo of the empty nest now, carrying on from the Goldie and Lemony phase LOL
All I hear is the hum and little birds chirping, chaffinch I think.

Someone's here, maybe on the campost.
Here's EJ flown in to the cam post with a chirp. Sorry didn't get a capture.
She is doing some housework, quite determined with the sticks.
