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.

Not sure which one is looking on but he was agressively trying to take fish from middle and there was quite a peck at middle's talons. I'm glad she managed to keep hold of it although she has struggled a bit dealing with the head. There is every chance that chick waiting in the wings will steal some of it eventually as the fish is soooo big.
Tiger said something about identifying them from the side and one with fish has very little white showing. Now third chick has flown in. Two are tormenting one with fish.
Third chick arrives,
Good afternoon all just logged in to see all 3 on the nest and a fish that has changed hands I think. It is a monster so know that it is probably EJ who has brought it in. Is the 3rd fish now? Hope however it is with will shares some as there is plenty there. Thanks for all the pics and there seems to be views of them today than yesterday.

I must go and have my lunch now.
Hi Margobird. I think fish might have changed hands a minute or two ago after third chick arrived and I looked away. First fishless chick flew off nest, EJ flew in for a few seconds then saw chick arriving back and flew off herself. Plenty of activity. Must do other things now. Catch up later.

Lovely pics Lindybird of all three together a sight we will see less and less.
Being spoilt today all three on nest again but keep a wary eye out and I think I heard a warning whistle either from EJ or Odin who must be nearby.
I see the fish hasn't changed hands again yet.
Chick nearest camera has the fish,
Hello Brenda H no it is still being eaten by the same youngster and I don't think there is going to be any left. What a piggy.
