14 miles round flight to Aviemore is what was figured out yesterday. One way traveling hungry, and one way carrying a whopper. No wonder EJ is in such great shape. Now, if only scylla's internet situation could be in equally fine shape. :-/ Sending scylla technical aura an extra shot of good vibes. We managed to get a nice shot of EJ on the campost besides seeing her back in the Love Tree as usual.
Then an amazing FB post photo by Eileen Jepp of Ej coming up from a dive with fish! She is intrepid! We are treasuring all our glimpses of her these days, knowing she is probably feeling the call of Africa.

Good Morning All when you arrive
Thank You CC for starting us off.
I get worried when I don't see Scylla at this time in the morning, as know it can only be her techie problems with laptop and the dreaded heat once again making her wabbit. I do hope you get your LG laptop sorted soon Scylla, as missing you! :-)
The perch is empty at the moment, and the view is at that blurry stage so no capture.
I have checked AO and no reports so far, but EJ is probably winging her way down there just now, I can imagine her flight and what a spectacular view she will get of the Cairngorms as she flaps her way there. :-)

I do hope she stays for a wee while yet, but you have to agree when you see what EJ has achieved over her LOYAL years to this nest, she truly is phenomenal, and LONG MAY SHE REIGN at Loch Garten. Hip Hip Hooray Queen EJ :-)
Still an empty perch, and NO updates from AO yet.
Good morning all, am still on phone! I've got my huge LG laptop on my lap and have done a small catchup vid from yesterday afternoo a d nightcam.
Trying to type with thumbs like I see them on TV but keep missing letters.
THANK YOU, CC and Good Morning MARY.
