Hi all,
Its was a day of action again, stealing of fish from EJ and Odin, Odin trying to get fish off EJ, GEMs trying to get in on the act, its was all happening yesterday.
We learnt that one youngster had fished for himself and indeed two might have learnt for themselves but that is not confirmed.
Will today see more action or will it be a quiet day. Thanks to all who open up the posts in the middle of our night and keep us going so we know what has been happening. Even in the wee small hours when most of us here are in our beds you let us know whats been happening.
There were some fantastic pictures yesterday - keep it up team - we love them and can't have enough of them.
This is the nest at 12.16am. Over to the night shift.

A GEM has just arrived with a screech! It must think it is fish-time :-)
EDIT - I like the speculative posts Robert the Bruce and Heron! Another GEM has arrived in the food queue!

One chick arrives screeching its head off - is it Middle or who??
This poor chick thinks it has been deserted. It has been flying to and from the post, to the nest and away
A GEM has just arrived and is calling. No doubt expecting food.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
And yet another GEM arrives
Looks like an intruder is about. GEM (which one?) on nest, shrieking and lying flat for a moment, then moving some twigs and getting up again

Nobody loves me. Where is my Mum with my dinner ????
GEM still on nest, and shrieking again:
Poor thing is doing his Odin impression now, on one leg...
After much ado said GEM has left the nest.
