I have always felt that we should have a thread for EJ as well as Odin.
My countdown clock says that we might expect her to swoop into Loch Garten 76 days from now. I hjope it has warmed up by then.

TIGER is one Green 7B ?
No no no no. Green 7B was the female who probably evicted EJ from her nest which she was sharing with Orange VS in 2003.
Green 7B was the grand daughter of Ollie and was sired by a male chick from the 1991 nest.
C Ringer - I love her and will be up to see her week commencing 2 April so may well accept your findings - I accept your character reference of her spouse Orange VS (He was never my favourite either).
1 Fish stand - as your client has admitted to this with mitigation I certainly will AQUIT.
C Ringer if I am in trouble with my wife I will employ you.
A good bit of fun and look forward of a great season with her and hopefully with her best man ODIN.
TIGER - was not 2002 the year there were many males on the nest but no successful eggs.
TIGER - Stuck all I have for 2002 is that various males visited the nest in 2002 and was unsuccessful.
My client accepts your apology and on this occasion will not press her claim for costs against you personally.
As the chief prosecution witness has now asked for an acquital I think we can safely say that my client now leaves with an unblemished character.
Keith - I hope you never need to employ me, but have to warn you that my fees are pretty high.
A lovely bit of fun.
Tiger - my pic has the male's head cut off and I can't see all the eyestripe, but if I had to have a guess I would say black 6T. As I recall his eyestripe almost created a 'hood' effect on his head.
Some people think Ospreys are a matter of life and death. I don't like that attitude. I can assure them it is much more serious than that.
Unknown said: TIGER - was not 2002 the year there were many males on the nest but no successful eggs.
Yes that was the year that Ollie did not come back. I think it was possibly Black 8Y that emerged as the winner of the male battles but was not a very successful mate for Olive.
Ah Black 8Y did not return in 2003.
According to the usually reliable employees at Rothiemurchus fish farm, Black 8Y was fond of spending hours hanging around there and when they had collected any dead fish from the tanks he would help himself if they left the bucket of dead fish alone for a wee while. I dont think he was into osprey 'fine dining.'
Black 8Y - Did he leave in 2002 and just failed to return 2003 or do we know something else.

See this picture.
I think I know the gal but who is the chap?
So is the chap in this picture Black 8Y pleasuring himself with Olive?
I enjoyed that debate! thank you all. :)
