Hi everybody, I was a bit hit and miss yesterday as was out most of the day.
Only caught up in the late evening so not sure how many fish were delivered
A lot of action late evening with two fish being delivered by Odin and EJ, two chicks managed to hog them and I believe the Middle one was left out. EJ then delivered a whale of a fish a bit later on and the Middle one had some. Couldn't quite tackle the head so started from furter down. Then EJ flew in and started feeding it. It eventually left like the other two. EJ has stayed on the nest now for well over an hour.
I'll leave you with this pic of her before she flies away for the night.Happy viewing, night shift, see you all in the moning.

BBC 2 right now : Wild Wales. Footage of an osprey hunting.
Just logged on to catch up. Will read the posts in a few minutes, but in advance, thanks for updates and pics.
One noisy youngster on the nest at present, but don't know who.
Hi Lynette, there is a second bird to the left of the nest.
EDIT, The noisy one has left.
Hey, TWO AGAIN!!

Hi BrendaH , I thought it was te noisy one ( Titch) right on the left hand side then another sibling came on the nest, I think is Middle, he went and is now bhack wondering what Titch is doing./top one is Titch I think, next one is Middle on who joined him, went, then came back.
There is your answer. It has a disgusting scrap of old fish.
Youngest still ' toying' with the fin of 'that' fish
Eldest has now arrived. Maybe they've decided it's dinner time and want to be ready in line. :)
And gone again . But Odin is somewhere nearby. Maybe eating the head of a dinner fish??????
It sounds like EJ is calling in the background. Titch is still muttering to himself, trying to eat the tail end of the fish and having a hard time of it. What is he doing, managing to get stuck with twigs around him and getting quite cross because things are'nt going his way. And in comes the eldest I think. All three on the nest.
Well, I'll just have to miss any incoming fish - I must water my patio before I can't be bothered.
