Oh my!!! EJ returns and Odin flies in with fish - couldn't be better, surely? :-D
One chick looking around, the other still doggo :(
IMAGICAT
I just logged in to find I missed the entire "live" ringing/tagging .
Thanks to every one who posted pictures, comments and video. I didn't miss all of it because of you . Thanks.
Now to wait for the blog from the center to tell us their names , ring letters, weight and sexes .
EJ's flown off with the fish - I hope she's not despairing :(
I have no sound. EJ was briefly on the nest and flew off.
EJ and Odin both back ... a fish I think, too ... but no sound.
I think EJ's gone again.

EJ visits, calls ( still no sound) and leaves.
Where did EJ go with the fish?
Drat it I'm going to have to do another flippin restart
After banding/tagging chicks always seem unaffected by the experience. After a short time they get up and on with normal life.

There are no records of adult birds rejecting chicks because they have been handled/ringed

I wonder if there was still an intruder around (human or otherwise) to make EJ leave again. Back now (with fish, minus head)
