A new day begins. I wonder if Odin will be up in time to get breakfast served early today?
Great scene of chicks preening a while ago.

Thanks for putting on the links, Tiger - I can't do those.
FlashSadie - I'm sure its OK to take those pics for yourself, as there is no copyright if they are not put out by RSPB themselves. (I've done it already!)
Some nice (silent!) feeding going on;

Yes of course you could. It would just require a few lessons! :)
Anyone wondering about how to do things just ask on the technical thread.
They seem to have had enough (for now!) and turned away - EJis enjoying her share-
now EJ is preening, and the chicks are trying to measure up to Mum's height --
Looks like Mum's gone off on a comfort break, now....

If this is Val's photos of Odin you're talking about, they are her copyright. Unless snapped from the screens at LG, in which case I'm not sure what the position is. But judging by the photos she has posted from her local nest, Val's equipment is easily capable of taking those direct from the visitor centre. That said, a couple of folk have openly said on forum that they have copied them, so I'm sure she would have said if she minded - and she just doesn't seem to be that sort of person. I'm sure no-one on this forum would publish without permission, which is what really matters.
It has been said repeatedly by others, but I have to add my own compliment: they really are absolutely stunning. Probably the best osprey photos I've ever seen. I would very happily pay for a good quality print of either.
Yes I think that Val should seriously consider making prints of that picture of Odin available for sale. I am sure that there would be willing buyers.
Chicks preening in the sunshine .... I thought they were home alone ... but EJ's beak just appeared on the right!

Glad you spotted that Joan. I was worried that they had been left for such a long time! Val's pictures of Odin absolutely fabulous.
