Hi Ann,

Odin did come back today and I missed seeing him, Pia, I think posted a video on UTube of the arrival and it is definitely Odin, first thing he did was to have a go at scraping out the nest cup. I wondered if it is now dry enough for a nest after all that snow and then rain today.

Happy Easter everyone

Hi both Ann's, and everyone else.

Great news about EJ.

Hope all is settled in the nest department, and the weather calms down a little.

If Odin has appeared all the better for EJ :t::-O:-O:-O

Happy Easter everyone and have a great weekend whatever you are doing. :-O

Regards
Kathy

An INTRUDER!? or Odin?? EJ arrived on the nest at 19.40 with a fish followed closely by another Osprey landing on the nest. EJ with her back to the newcomer, mantling aggressively the fish she's just returned with. She appears to have seen the other Osprey off. Exiting stuff but I have to go out, hopefully someone can update in the meantime?

BRILLIANT!!! So it was Odin - I've only checked the webcam a few times in the past few days so I'm thrilled I saw him just after he arrived. I was wondering if it was him but that she didn't recognise him at first, it's been over 7 months after all!

Thanks Daisy for the link to Richard's confirmation.

Like all of us, I've felt for EJ the past few days - waiting patiently through snow, rain and wind tendering the home fires. Faith - she had it! :gh:

Hi Marmot,

I don't think they have the sound running yet at LG as none of us watching have heard it.

Happy Easter

until they get mains electric rather than using the generator the sound isn't too pleasant at LG. I think they're hoping its fixed very soon. The weather has delayed it.

EJ and Odin both on the nest and enjoying the sunshine. Both still seem to be fishing for themselves past few days.

In case anyone is wondering - all the red Lichen is courtesy of Odin and a 'gift' he brought to EJ to line her nest with. (After pinching back a fish he'd bought to EJ earlier!).

Currently watching EJ calling quite frequently, no doubt for her breakfast!

And this morning at 9.00am, Odin duly obliged (finally!). EJ took off immediately with the fish leaving a rather dismissed Odin on the nest. Hopefully, he's getting with the programme now!
