Hi folks,
Another day gone by with Odin delivering fish and EJ going off to eat while her man does his duty.
Now sitting contented on the nest.

That clump seems to be centre stage, whatever they do with it!
Hmmm, is it just me or does EJ look a little 'spread out' and slightly uncomfortable. It may be just my imagination or perhaps wishful thinking but I wonder if egg number two might make an appearance soon?
Fish delivery for EJ, which she was very happy to accept and fly away with.
Odin has just brought a fish in, headless. After a bit of a mix, I think her foot was under the big stick, she flew off with it, and Odin settles for his stint on the egg.

I had been wondering the same Foxtail. But then Odin arrived with his fish and she was happy to fly off with it. Wishful thinking!!
Odin egg-sitting ... and gently chirping .... surely he can't want EJ to come back? Oh yes ... here she comes!
So did he want the remainder of the fish or a bit of nookie! After the latter he is off. EJ pads into position to settle, a stretch of her wings, a gentle tap on the egg and down.
Edit: She couldn't get comfy, and was fidgeting a bit, but seems OK now.
afternoon all.
These were from a few hours ago.
recorded earlier so I don't know the time but a fish delivery from Odinhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxoFB2Z_SwE
Here is a nice change over as wellhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FAuCsTDOvc
it really is a weird looking egg, sometimes it's turned to a weird angle and it almost looks like half of it is cracked open
