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 Signature
Clare- with all the changing weather I think many species will have to adapt-
so one day maybe.
One Life - Live It!!
Yaayyy! She's back. Whoopee
So are you - another name I've missed seeing around!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

To say the least Tiger, what an arrival, to get a warning that she was on her way was just pure magic!!!

I got totally taken up with looking at the screen at the time, and my OH had to start cooking dinner without me! (thank goodness he's not a helpless type LOL)
What an amazing bird. I often wonder how many more "EJ's" and "Lady's" there are out there, turning up every year and producing the next generations of osprey to keep the numbers up. Thank goodness they are so good at raising their young so that we can continue to enjoy this wonderful bird in the UK.
Any additions to the EJ thread?
EJ remains as ever, a devoted and resourceful Mother and guardian of her nest at LG! And she is just as beautiful with every passing year!!
As I've just added a picture to Odin's thread I feel it's only fair to do the same to EJ's:
What a wingspan!
