Well it has been one of those worrying days again. It started out fine with both Odin and EJ seemingly enjoying their reunion.
Then sometime during the morning it was noticed that EJ was no longer on the nest. This was not worrying to begin with but as the hours passed it certainly concerned the viewers on here.
The weather at Loch Garten has been generally foul today and has become even worse tonight with snow falling.
So is there a problem or not? Personally I do not think so as ospreys have been known to go walkies before (well maybe they flying equivalent of walkies whatever that is).
In 2005 EJ went AWOL for a whole nine days. It was thought that she was sulking because Henry had smashed her eggs.
I guess viewers will be tuning in at first light to see if she has returned.
Anyway I think it is a bit too early to panic!

Shall I post this in the blog comments to alert Richard? (Not that he can have time to keep popping in there, surely?)

I agree, RtB, and also think there should be some "official" way of reporting issues to LG HQ.
Badgie, I missed that you had already posted that shot, though I think the head is at a different angle. It's better without me reducing to 400, I do that because last year my pics spread out and looked very poor resolution.
I'll shut up now and have a nap ;-)
