A new day. It is day 50 for Tore today. Will she fledge today?
Personally I do not think so as it is still very early in the fledging window and young ospreys usually spend some time staring down before taking the plunge. No sign of Tore doing any staring yet.
I notice that there were 392 posts in yesterday's thread. That really is busy!

There was supposed to be some wingercising on this but VLC's delay means it got missed - however, here's the chick venturing to look over the edge - was it Chloe mentioned this behaviour yesterday?

SCYLLA: I'm sure you found Carnyx via Google, but just in case....

I'm finding the site very erratic: One post showed up immediately; the other (longer) one on Weekly Chat appeared not to load at all, but when I shut down the page and reopened it, there it was!
Dare I try to uploade a photo I just got (I'm sure Scylla has a video of it). Well, no luck there. Sigh...... It was a wonderful close up of Star with her face in the camera.
Tiger mentioned the habit of "looking down" before a chick fledges. Tore is doing exactly that this morning. She is also looking right at the camera with her lovely eyes.
Edited to say: Annette and whoever else - consider that I am loading what I see as evidence for all of us who witness it! :)

Hi CC: Whoops! Thanks for reminding me that Star is now Tore!!
CC: Brilliant! But now I'm confused as to which chick is which?
Hi CC, it was me, thanks for the response :) You having a Mac means that your programs are foreign to me :)
I might try Photobucket in preference to YouTube if I keep getting shysters like Sony Music laying claim to copyright of my osprey videos/sound - it's a racket!
OK. Well this site is now waaaaaay past frustrating. Life is too short. I'm off to bed. CC and Scylla (and Barbara if you haven't headed for the hills) goodnight - and good luck!

I'm off to bed too! Argh! TOO LATE! Just as the kids are getting active. Good night all! xx
Goodnight Annette! :-)
I just uploaded that nightcam pic above, it took 4+ minutes. (I had clicked Edit instead of Rich Formatting in error but once I got there I wasn't going to start again!!!)
EJ's just flown in :-)
Straight posts are faster for me than yesterday.
EJ seems to have gone to check out on the chick in "her" place on the right-hand edge.
