The three juveniles are thriving under Mrs G and Aran's continued care, proving once again what formidable parents they are. Long may the season continue to be be hassle-free as it nears the time for migration

  • I presume KC4 has had a fish today? I've seen two deliveries with the Olaf posted, and KC3 got them both.
    I see from chat that KC3 had a left over tail this morning.

  • Hi Sheila, Scylla posted a video of KC4 receiving a fish from Aran at 8:08 this morning. The tail piece KC3 had was the leftover :)

  • Big thanks to SHEILA and OLAF for the updates! Blush 

    I'm ultra-embroiled in a YouTube wobbly, no suggested solutions have worked, I even shut down all my downloads and rebooted Persevere 

     No videos will process, eg:

    Heyho!

    ************************

    Yes, SHEILA, KC4 did get a fish, the first one - Quote me: "A headless FLOUNDER arrived @ 08:08 and KC4 got it."  (Edit @ 22:36 - I see SANDRA has informed - typically alert ;) )

    And after having had to made do with the tailfin that KC4 had grudgingly left, KC3 got a whole FLOUNDER mid-late-morning - the "drenched" delivery that won't process:

    He ate until flying off with the fish @ 11:56, and I did some portraits to calm down, including a different version of OLAF's live snap Blush 


    13:06 headless trout covered by SHEILA - one of the poses framed ;)

    A quiff to die for Grin  

    Over TWO HOURS of disruption and stress and YT has just fixed itself Rolling eyes  

    Oh, half fixed itself, it's picking and choosing which to process Disappointed

    I had just added myself to the 600 YouTubers complaining about the same problem over the past 2-3 months.  Go figure.

    Two waiters:

    Covered by OLAF?


    You can see how much destressing has had to go on.

    This was Aran taking off, the max we saw of his face at this time:

    KC4 left this much of the fish, KC3 did not come to collect it!

    Cutie-pie:

    18:31 FLOUNDER for KC3 !!!

    He flew without starting it:

    This slug comes and forages every night, I'd know him anywhere ;)

    I''m thoroughly confused now - did KC4 get anything after breakfish?  I'll go thru the thread again and check.

    You see?  I can't be digressed from my routine, and I was trying not to duplicate.

    Never assume!  I thought this was referring to the 15:30 fish but it must have been an earlier one - here was KC4 receiving the 15:30 fish - I've checked with magnifier, and OLAF's snap was definitely KC3 and this is definitely KC4 - SOLVED! Blush

  • No-one yet seen on Tuesday the 8th. Heather did a scan a bit earlier.

  • Wonderful captures Scylla, especially that open beaked one of KC4 which is a stunner. Grinning

  • KC3's arrival, he's still perched there looking around:
