Must go and get dinner finished, back later. Happy weekend all.
EJ calling off nest. Odin looking around. Silent again. Odin has a half-hearted go at one of the clumps under his beak. EJ resumes the gentle nagging from off nest.

EJ returns and tells Odin to get off the eg. He flies off, and she continues to chunter. Perhaps it is time for an evening fish supper?
Odin could well be on the camera post.
EJ continues to cheep, rather than a chirrup.
Radio Chaffinch is her occasional companion. It must be a call for fish... I must go.
Odin returned again, after EJ still continued chirruping. He seemed confused so decided to fly around and return to mate. He flew away and she is now quiet !!
EJ has started softly calling again. I presume she can still see Odin. Maybe she wants fish or she is feeling restless before she lays a second egg.
odin just brought in a huge stick
Odin returns, but no fish, just a small tree. He is now sitting on the nest whilst EJ leaves.
Odin brings in a huge branch which makes EJ get up and leave:
. . .and he's then able to take up his favourite pastime:
Thanks Sandy.
EJ returns. Odin moves his new large branch, does his usual circuit of the nest and returns to mate, then leaves.
