Hi, it was a day of misery for the two chicks. With EJ gone and it looks like Odin has gone too, there were no deliveries of fish yesterday.
Nature is playing its part. It is time the two juves went fishing for themselves or else start on their migratory journey. Odin has obviously felt it is time to kick start these two into foraging for themselves. If confirmed he is gone by the LG team it will be about the same time as last year.
The weather sounds foul at LG at the moment so hope they are sheltering safely somewhere.
Only time and a new day will tell us what is happening.
Over to the early morning team and thanks to all of you in California, Australia, Finland, and elsewhere for keeping us updated.

Titch flies off. Quackers looks around before following him. Yes, I ID'd her as she quacked when she took off. One is still nearby by and could be heard.

I've been grabbing some lunch --EN now.
(some people are collecting pics of the chicks hoping to have an ID for each, if they ever return to LG in future years :-) )
-- One back on nest, shouting again.
-- and its quacking!
Angry calling from I think two off nest. Just as I write that Quackers returns still calling.
Quackers mantling and turning to keep an eye on the intruder. Intruder lands, and Quackers defends and 'chests' intruder off the nest. Well done Quackers!!
Oh - I missed the intruder - I was out of the room again and just heard lots of screeching.
-- not a happy bunny....
Oh dear....
Love it Lindybird. This is my first attempt...
Home alone
Well done Sheila! (If I can do it, anyone can, I'm not very computer savvy)
