  • Hello, CC.  Thanks very much for posting the video of Bynack nibbling Tore's aerial and satgear!!

    Evening, Cirrus, [have you sorted your problem yet?] and Everyone else.  It's been good viewing today.  Earlier the chicks were having 15 minutes of "wriggle-bottom" behaviour!

  • EJ flew off the nest a couple of minutes ago

    Tore and Bynack home alone

  • Hi everyone :-)

    Many thanks for all the posts, pics, and vids since I last posted.

    JulieQ, thanks for sharing those wonderful pictures :-)

    Warning!  This post contains atrocious spelling, and terrible grammar.  Approach with extreme edginess.

  • CC - Great video.  It was always Bynack who started trouble and Tore who finished it.

    JulieQ -  Beautiful photos.  Nice to see how calm they both looked and to see them in such detail close up.

  • Hi Daisy Ray. Well, I have been curious about whether one of them would see the new gear as weird sticks that are not in the right position, lol. And when I saw your post, I thought to post the video of "the nibbling."

    Regarding "wriggle bottom" I have always seen that as expressing a certain contentment. :)

    Sorry, not been counting the fish, that's Hazel's forte.

    Thanks Scylla ;) and you are correct :)  In fact I don't count sheep when I go to sleep, I count fish - Osprey style! LOL

    EDIT: Goodnight Pam.  2nd EDIT: I put fish when I should have put sheep (edited now) LOL fish on the brain or what?

    Thanks again, CC, for putting that video on. 

    Yes, the "wriggle-bottom" behaviour was both of them being quite excited together.  They both stood up; both stretched their wings, jumped about, flapped across to the other side of the nest, then jumped about a bit more; then sat down and preened a little; stood up again moved around a bit more; changed places a few times.  I know we've watched most of that before.  But tonight it all happened in a sequence.  Eventually they settled down again happily - very close together, of course.  It was joy to observe them.
