I think I might go to bed right after this and stay in bed until noon today for some reason :)
BTW WHITE RABBITS!
Well, I have predicted Odin's return today, along with others. Will we be right? Watch this space!
ChloeB & Tiger's Osprey Data
I was thinking that too Brenda H re XD ... and all this on top of what must have been quite a traumatic experience of finding his own nest in tatters. Of course, at this point he doesn't know he's had a helping hand to rebuild it.
I imagine EJ will be happy whatever the outcome
Its all gone quiet now or should I say empty nest as the sound is still off.

Yes but Blue XD is a whole lot tougher proposition than Orange VS
Tiger Signature
Looks like EJ sitting in the tree on wide cam view Lynette, awaiting round 3 to start. Chloe you are quite right EJ a winner whichever male wins. However if blue boy retains the nest then we have to hope that he doesn't leave her if Green J comes back - hence I said earlier be careful what we wish for as it could have a bad outcome for EJ.
I wonder what the stats are from Green J's return in previous years... Is she late or is XD early!!! What would happen to Odin if he didnt oust XD from LG, considering Henry didnt return until end of April lets hope if XD did abandon EJ, then Odin would still be around to take over. Or am I just the eternal optimist.
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
I got this video grab from Scylla's video. I can't see a leg ring at all, so I don't think that it was Blue on the nest.
Loch Garten stats. and All the important links for LG.
Oh Moffer please dont say EJ bumped Odin off the nest!!!

[/quote]True enough.
Well, the season has certainly started with a bang... do hope everything works out for all the birds concerned. We are still learning about their way of life and I suppose this drama is just another bit of the jigsaw.
