Hi everyone :-)
Thanks for all the brilliant updates, observations, pics, links etc. on yestarday's thread. Wonderful to see how quickly Star and Storm are growing. Thankfully the wind has subsided and I hope it stops bothering the LG Ospreys for the rest of the season.
EJ's awake at the moment, enjoying a good preen.

Hello Pharazon (as in "Ar Pharazon the Golden" from Westernesse?)
I haven't found a decent program yet :-( I had a good search last week for free/shareware online, and the only ones I came up with turned out to put watermarks on the resulting videos. One option I suppose would be to get VLC to transcode it to a format which one can edit easily, but I haven't got around to it yet. I therefore only post entire recordings, which means I have to keep my eyes peeled, and my mouse pointer poised on the record/stop button. I get far less work done when I watch the video than I should do!
I also note that Windows Movie Maker, a limited but easy solution, is no longer available from Windows 7 upwards. I don't have my old copy of XP set up right now, nor any Linux distro, which I'm sure I could find some good software for.

two sleeping bairns, mum taking in the scenery and then in comes Odin with tea.
Fish 6
Teatime :-)
Thanks again for all the pictures and comments. EJ is so clever. She was feeding the chicks near the part of the nest that is built up the highest. When they wander they are too small to climb over all of those branches and fall out of the nest.
The area where Odin usually lands is not built up as high
Of course I am sure the center has their ladder at the ready incase one does fall. They would put it back in the nest
OMG Here is Odin with another fish !! Storm seems to be getting the most.

Thanks for all the updates, pics, and videos. Brilliant stuff. Great to hear Odin has been bringing in plenty of fish today. Speaking of which. Here's another one! :-)
Back later must go and get dinner finished
