Hi everyone.
Many thanks for all the updates, pics etc. Great to have sound back on but I must admit the weather forecasts and the wind I'm currently hearing on the LG cam, have got me feeling a bit edgy. I can hear calls but they sound more like small bird than Ospreys (adult or chick). EJ is currently awake, and just as I was about to say she looks deep in thought, she gave one of those looks :-)
But she does look quite thoughtful though

Odin just brought part of a fish. EJ took it and "flew away" leaving the chick alone. She came back and there is still only one chick

Yikes! Chick left alone in the wind! Not a great screen grab but it shows that there's still 1 chick and 2 eggs.
A bigger wee one !!!!
Wow, that chick is getting strong. Even managed a ' wing walk' very well.
Sorry, Cirrus, you beat me posting a pic.
I gulped too when I saw EJ leave the chick alone . But she came right back
Has it ever been this cold, rainy and windy during hatching time at LG?
I wonder if the terrible weather has affected the eggs both at LG & LOTL
I know EJ is doing her best to keep them warm and dry, but the nest under her must be soaked
don't want to appear negative, but .......... I suppose the other two eggs will hatch, won't they?
's Ok Diane. Yours is a good pic for confirming two eggs and the wee one.
Barbara Jean: It was only a brief moment of panic. Thank goodness. :-) The weather is just so awful, and the wee bird all alone!

I was thinking the same Cirrus!
Thanks for the pics of the feed and chick ... I was in the kitchen making soda bread :-)
