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.

One thing's for sure, Alan, it's been a fish fest today!
It's middle chick who had to wait for its supper who is still eating :) What am I still doing up !!!!
This is the fish Odin brought in last alive - Eldest ate the head.
Thought the nest was empty and then one juve appeared, but not sure whether its Titch. He's gently chirping away.
This is the moment that #2 realises there's a chunk of fish left on the nest but can't eat any more:
And the one on the nest has now flown to roost with a part eaten fish left on the nest. Do we know how many fish were delivered today as I've been out most of the day.
Thanks for all the recent commentary and pictures. The day is ending with an uneaten fish on the nest. Good night All.

You're quite right, Brenda, the pictures tell the story:
