All quiet on the LG nest, as Odin and EJ roost close by.
Oops sorry got the date wrong.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
Sorry, but I cannot report on the nest at present. The world and his wife in the village must be using the internet and all I get it a blank screen, it doesn't even attempt to buffer! Perhaps I'll have more luck later. In the meantime many thanks for your pictures and dialogue.

Hope you get your pictures back soon Sheila. You are not missing much. a couple of attempts at mating. Both birds have been preening whilst enjoying the sunshine and now EJ is alone on the nest. We are having a day at home, in the garden, so I have laptop on full volume by a garden door, so that I can hear any action. All I can hear at the moment is the wind.
EJ has now left.
There must be an intruder as EJ was wing flapping and screeching and flew off.
EJ did return but was still alarm calling and left again. Odin is now on the nest wondering where his wife has gone.
Thanks Brenda H, that all sounds quite exciting!
Nest is ospreyless and all is quiet again.
Back to the garden for me.
Thanks everyone for the great pictures and reports. Always appreciated! The nest is empty as I type. It appears the clump of grass is annoying both of them. Neither one knows where to put it . Since Odin doesn't seem willing to toss his treasure overboard, we need one good gust of wind to blow it off the nest :)
When do we start the first egg count-down? I think it will be this Friday during the very early morning

It has already started. See main blog.
My guess is 8am on Friday 15th April.

Hurray, picture on Carnyx, but the little circle keeps going round. However, I can see Odin in the sunshine, with a bit of a breeze.
And as I type, he flies off.
A colourful empty nest with lots of soft furnishings.
I see the large stick is still fixed to the carpet.
Nest still empty.
