No EJ or GJ yesterday despite Lorna's best efforts combined with the regular DUers. Is it finally the end of the season? Shall we consider starting up our post-season thread for 2018? Here is scylla's last capture, a painterly one of rosy deer ambling by the perch (video link).

Thanks MIKE and GORDON
Morning Patily
Mike - Good you got a reply from Gordon, alas it does look like dear EJ has gone.
We can only wait to see if any updates from the VC or Lorna letting us know if she has appeared today.
Does anyone else have that empty feeling already. :-(
I always feel so sad when she leaves each year, but then the joy of when she returns is totally exhilarating.
I will leave my farewells until we know she has gone for real...

Morning all! I'll go and have a quick check for her in case she is hiding somewhere....
Thank you Lorna. Not been to Aviemore this morning.
Birdies LG DU update.

I certainly do, MARY, and am feeling glum :(
Lorna (probably) has been having a good look around and has settled on the side view of the nest.
I wonder if they realise about the colour, it's definitely still "off". Not horrible by any means, tho :)
I'm packing up... as soon as I correct my Glaslyn posts, dang! But thank you, MIKE :-*

Oh Mary, I feel,exactly the same (I got quite excited early on, then read you had other cam's open)! We click and there she is, on her nest/perch/tree and we have that for 5 months and once she is no longer there, it's horrible, you keep saying, come on EJ, just one last time! I do think EJ and partner in crime GJ are away. Another long wait until March!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Thanks Lorna for having a look for her.
Oh Scylla you made me laugh, when I was looking at the Glaslyn thread - I was Confused.Com LOL....
Hi Catlady
Yes it is that sinking feeling of realising we won't be spending time with her any longer this season.
Then I think, when did I last see her on cam, and go searching my files to see when it was. :-)
Lorna has had a thorough search and so far no sign of EJ.
She will continue during the day.
Lorna can also see the strange colouration on one of her monitors and will look into the cause.
Thank you Lorna.

Thank you, Mike, for bringing it to the VC's attention :)
Cheerio for now, all :)
