All quiet on the Osprey front. Mistle started gently food soliciting, then quiet, then stood up to reveal.........
,, what appeared to be a half eaten rainbow trout! No doubt Scylla will be able to get a much sharper image than me. All this happened about 5:45. It was as stiff as a board. When was that delivered?
Afrer faffing around getting images 1 of them has come back to the nest and is incubating - can't tell which.
Some people think Ospreys are a matter of life and death. I don't like that attitude. I can assure them it is much more serious than that.

12.11 Mistle is back on the nest, asking him to go get some food. A bit of conversation while Axel is stuck on the eggs. 12.14 Mistle lifts off and away in the wind.
12.26 Mistle is back on the eggs. (I missed this switch.) She brings a clump. Moves a stick. Eggs unclear.

Filling in the gap between me leaving and CC arriving
Fishless Axel takes over:
Mistle returned with twig...
...took over:
Then CC's contributions above.
12:11 Mistle flew in with tiny fistfuls of soily stuff, only stayed 3 minutes:
Back again with more twiggy stuff, took over this time:
I haven't seen any good views of eggs. Axel's breast is not so plump now.
As for fishing - it's been (sounding like it's) blowing a hoolie-times-ten.
You nipped in while I was inside the RF, CC
Unknown said:Eggs unclear.
I'm glad we agree on that!
Mistle is back, still complaining. Now back on the eggs.
Hi scylla! Passing on the way!
