Haven't looked at nest all day but thought I'd better start a new Daily Thread while I could log on to the site!
EJ returns and just about pushes Odin off the eggs!

The early evening sun casts its shadows over the nest - EJ in the shadows

Thanks Lynette, it's a lovely light at this time of year
Here is where Odin is in no hurry to get off the eggs

EJ gets up to show off the multi-coloured eggs:
Odin comes in with a stick which he places on EJ's back, her expression is priceless:
Of course it's a cunning plan to get back on the eggs:
Odin looks so handsome ... his white chest is showing up beautifully in the shady part of the nest!
Hi everyone.Thanks for starting the thread Annette, and thanks for all the updates, links and pics everyone both today and yestarday. Had a great time watching Peregrines at the Falls of Clyde yestarday. Always wonderful to see birds of prey :-)Odin on the nest just now, looking splendid in the evening sunshine. I wonder how long it'll take EJ to get him off the eggs when she arrives back from her break LOL.
Warning! This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar. Approach with extreme edginess.
I have not been able to get onto the forum for nearly 2 days. Happy to see it is now working. I could not get onto the main forum either.
Thanks to everyone for the pictures and commentary.
Wow that intruder was very bold!
Apparently Odin was not in the area when he tried to mate with EJ or we would have seen a lot of white feather flying in the air LOL
Thanks again
How many days until the first little one should peek out of it's shell?? The first egg was laid April 13 or 14th and it takes 32 -35 days before they hatch , correct
