Re: Daily Update (LG Nest) Friday 23rd July

Got to go now, empty nest only managed to catch glimpses of some of the family so far today.  Going out to lunch so need to go and get ready as I am being picked up at 12.00.  Back later hopefully.

Enjoy your lunch margobird! Not much happening now, so I'm sure you won't miss too much.

 Morning all and thanks for the overnight and early morning reports and pics. I see we have a touch of ENS at the moment. JSB : I think that the migration dates are the hardest of all to predict especially after Rothes early departure last year.

Re chick stats.

My copy of 'The Scottish Ospreys' by Philip Brown has just arrived in the post. So, if I discover more info about migration dates, I shall update the stats accordingly.

During the last hour, EJ visited the nest followed by Odin. Odin then left , then EJ.  Then along came one chick and landed on the cam post and another one came in and landed on the extreme right of the nest.  All now appear to have gone unless out of sight of cam.EJ on her ownOdin just landedTogetherness

Hi Daisy Ray. I save my pictures to 'my picture file' and then you click on the little blue sign above and to the right of this message. Then press browse, locate your photograph; click on photo and save; then insert and it will appear in your post. If you wish to post from the live video, I haven't even tried that yet. Lynette or Joan could help you there.

Daisy Ray - I managed to open yours as a word doc and have saved it  Thanks.

EJ  has just returned to the nest.

Morining everyone - need to read from page one but here be Eldest

She is gently calling.  These next 3 are from earlier. She has now leftEJ about to take offone youngster about to land on cam postThis one lands on extreme right.  They don't stay for long and are off again.

You think it was the eldest, Cirrus.  It didn't stay for long and just before it went it was chirruping gently.

BTW. thanks jsb for the stats info and hope you can find something that will all help us.

I think it did work - kind of.

So here is another I did for ID purposes last night when I discovered the thread about identifying the chicks.

I am open to correction if I have got it wrong!!

Hi Daisy Ray -  forgive me if you've already been told this:   In order to post on these pages via the ''insert media'' link, the images need to be  .jpg   type so if you have a means of changing your Word docs into    .jpg   files on your computer then you just need to browse to the folder you've put the  .jpg     s   in and click on the image. That will place its ''address'' in the empty bar. Then click on ''insert'' - wait a while till it does insert into (or onto) the ''Reply page'' and then click POST to complete the action and place image on the page.

Lynette, just before it flew off it turned its back to the camera and the back feather did show a juveniles feather edging. Also, I thought ... it just 'looked'' so much 'younger' than EJ   :)

Thank you everyone for grabbing what pics you can -  each one to treasure now , sigh. ENS someone said -  oh yes.  Thank you also JSB for all your hard work.

Still an empty nest. We are out to have lunch. Hope there is a little more action to see this afternoon. 'See' you later.
