Well, a big day yesterday at LG. Welcome back Odin!
Odin brings a headless fish for EJ who flies off with it ... must have been why she was nagging!
Joan - avid bird and nature watcher in Northumberland!

Odin gets down to work scraping!
Then he decides to have a lie-down for a while :-))
It is so lovely to watch him in action ... or inaction as the case may be!
ChloeB was so relieved to find out that Odin had returned and now my dream of seeing both EJ and Odin for real will be coming true in June. Can hardly wait I am going to feel so emotional when I go up to LG after watching for the past 3 years. I will probably want to do it all again next year.

Joan wonderful to see them united and how strong the bond is between them. Looking forward to many happy hours just watching and marvelling at these wonderful ospreys.

He showed up a day earlier !! Margo :) just look, don't read (ha ha , as if you could) but do take care of those eyes dear
Many thanks for the 'fish report' DJoan . Ah, Margo I had temporariy forgotten this was ''your year'' :)
Yes I can imagine how you must feel Margo. I have stayed up there a couple of times and the experience is magic :) To be actually volunteering there would be something else :)

Ceud mile failte Odin and EJ
A hundred thousand welcomes!
I am also so thrilled to see Lady Marge and Laird reunited. Aww :-)
Although I have not posted for a considerable time, mainly due to various health issues, compounded by pc problems, I am now recovering and pc seems to be behaving. Isn't life wonderful?
I have so much to catch up on but in the meantime, many thanks to everyone for all the updates, pics, comments and links.
Apologies for the numerous corrections I have had to make. My brain is in gear but not my arthritic fingers. I expect to get an end-of-term report: Can do better"!

Stick delivery followed by mating...
