I am starting the thread so I can copy the link to the clip Diane provided showing all 3 eggs
Thanks Diane

Hi there Margo and DJoan. - Heron , don't worry, there won't be a fourth egg to worry about - cetainly hope not anyway, you just get your sleeep.
Welcome back Shiela, like you I ended up calling it quits yesterday - nothing worked for me trying to get on to this forum. Sometimes if you visit your personal page you can get back to DU from there. But not yesterday. Oh well, todays fine - like everyone else , looking forward to getting the sound back. That will be so important close to hatching time.
It's a work evening for me so I hope someone will mention any fish that may arrive later . Oh, yes, have we had a new Blog about the third egg??
Just caught sight of Odin bring in an headless fish! It's odd with no sound! She flies off, Odin pads gently to tend his clutch.

Back to his favourite task! EJ may be some time ... the fish looked a reasonable size .... maybe she'll bring some back for him :-))
Just seen fish delivery. It is odd with no sound, Sheila. Normally I can tell by EJ's call notes that a fish is on the way.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
Well done Joan & Heron. Lovely captures. Odin looks quite content sitting on his eggs now. What a beautiful day it looks at LG too.
Catching up again, thanks for the updates and pics.

EJ is back with the tail end of the fish for Odin, who eats it on the nest - well, he took a bite or two and has now gone off. In the sun the difference in the colour of the eggs is so obvious, The screen froze, so I was able to take this!
The new one is much more a ruddy colour than the other two.
Oh good ... I thought EJ might bring some fish back for Odin! Thanks for that info Sheila!
Definitely, SheilaFE, you can certainly see the contrast.
