Hi everyone, its been a day of contrasts.
Lots of comings and goings , fish deliveries, snatching one from the other etc, and quiet times on the nest as is now. We are obviously going to have ENS more often than not now that all three are exploring the area and finding new places to roost.
I believe 6 fish were brought in yesterday and all had a share of the feasts.
EJ and Odin doing magnificent work in bringing in the fish. The youngsters between them , demolishing them.
Don't know what the viewing will be like overnight but good luck, night shift, hope you get some movement on the nest.
Take care all, happy viewing!! and see you in the morning.

#2 and #3 were on the nest making a real racket:
EJ then delivered a fish and in the scramble I couldn't see who got it.
Thanks Sandy. I just saw the adult fly away.
Unknown said: Odin arrives with a fish. Two chicks fight over it. now impossible to see who has it.

I was trying to post at the time of the delivery Brenda so didn't get a good look at who brought it in - I thought it was EJ but it could have been Odin. The juves sure are hungry!
Eldest has the small fish that Odin brought and ., of course, Middle juve gets left out as usual. Oh well. Hopefully EJ is on her way with a BIG fish.
I missed all that excitement ... I wondered why I wasn't hearing any sounds from the other room ... then realised I had muted the sound when they were making alll the noise earlier!! At least somebody is getting a feed.

Pretty sure that #2 had the fish first but Titch has now wrestled it off him.
Fishless youngster is trying all ways to get near the fish!
This pic is very similar to one of Garten from last year:
Titch ( I think) came rushing to the nest yelling his head off. Either Odin or EJ is in the area with a fish.
He has been calling non- stop and facing the camera tree since he saw who ever it is .
EDIT
Titch is quiet now. I think someone when fishing to shut him up LOL
When he wants to eat , no one have any peace until he gets a fish.

What is all that row? Odin just flew in with a stick (huh?) but they were making the row before then, when I arrived.
