Hi all, wasm't in much yesterday so not quite sure how many fish were delivered. Reading the posts there seems to have been a plethora of fish delivered and from what I can gather all three had good meals from them EJ and Odin delivering fish during the course of the day.
I won't be around in the morning as helping at Kids Summer Club at Church but will log on in the afternoon and catch up. Happy viewing and hi to Annette, Aquilreen, Barbara Jean, and many more from overseas. And I'll say Good Morning in advance to all our home bloggers, keep the pics coming as I'll have to catch up.
Leaving you with last photo of the night: Notice the part eaten fish in the centre of the nest. Left by Middle and not wanted by anyone else.

Hey Barbara Jean: Yes, EJ may leave early - but at least she's getting breakfast without being attacked, which makes me wonder if that's #2 at left. I'm thinking #1 would always try to snatch whatever anyone brought in - and EJ's fish is a big'un.
The fish EJ has is immense!!
Any fishermen out there to tell us what type of fish that it is?
EDIT This is crazy. Titch, I think , has a fish under his foot and EJ dragged her fish over to feed him.
He is loudly food begging for EJ to feed him while standing on a fish

Good Lord. Now she's feeding the other chick - who's still holding the original fish!!
Barbara Jean: I think all the fishermen (fisherpeople??) -bloggers are still asleep. :-) I'm going to sign - again! Hope you aren't suffering with that heat too much; sounds awful.
So you think it's Titch - you're probably right since you're so good at remembering their markings (to me it's "has two wings, two feet, a beak - must be a bird!!" :-) Night all.
EJ is a saint!
Yesterday Middle viciously attacked her. This morning she is gently feeding him /her

The heat isn't bad where I live. I am 1 mile from Lake Michigan and it is always cooler near the lake in the Summer and warmer near the lake in the Winter .
I think we only got up to around 83 today . The humidity is another story . It is humid near a lake so the humidity today was about 83%.
Morning all ... thanks for overnight nest news! Logged on to see EJ feeding one young one who then flew off, leaving EJ to eat by herself. Then the funniest thing ... Odin arrived fishless and three times tried to take the fish from EJ who wasn't having it!! Eventually he succeeded and flew off with the last bit of fish :-) EJ now doing housework.

Odin arrives again and inspects EJ's talons for fish ... none there! He then proceeds to do some housework too!!! EJ chirps gently to him and then she flies off.
Morning ALL. Thanks for the overnight/ earlier reports. An empty nest greets me, but there has been breakfast.
