'Morning Lindy and Joan :) It's a relief to know I'm leaving the nest pics in good hands when I go out hiking (in about an hour) . Once more- great pics and thanks so much.

Cirrus Great capture. That shows the chicks well.
That fish was delivered at 7.25am and now 95 minutes later Chick #3 is still eating.

Morning all, Thanks Cirrus, Joan and Lindy for the great pics.
Logged on to see sunshine and buffeting winds. Those juves are having a hard time trying to stay on the nest, let alone Titch eat his fish. Hope he saves some for Middle. It looks like a pattern is emeging - EJ brings breakfast and Odin brings supper, but of course that may change. And I'll add one too.
Thanks to early morning shift for their updates.

Off topic - where are you off to today, Cirrus?
Talk about bad hair day!!!!! Middle just made a move and Quackers grumbled at him and put him off.l
Chick #2 really needs to get a bit tougher otherwise life is going to be hard!
Good Morning All. Thanks for all the lovely pics and reports.
Tiger Chick #2 really needs to get a bit tougher otherwise life is going to be hard!
I agree Tiger. I always have a niggling worry for Middle juve.
Lindybird Off topic - where are you off to today, Cirrus?
The aborted Quantocks hike Lindy - traffic permitting , other wise Sharon has a plan B but I'm not sure what it is. Rocky is with us so we need a walk without styles (not all have doggy doors). Weather forecast looks pretty abysmal actually, but we are intrepid and have good gear so we'll see. I'm meeting my friend at her Rocky's home (sister and BiL on hol) in Weston-super-Mare.
Thanks for your forebearance everyone !! back to the howling wind and the nest and Millde youngster being patient and hoping for the best. I really DO hope Youngest leaves her the fish tail and a teeny little bit of flesh on it.
It's a big fish for one osprey to eat alone....
Have a good day, Cirrus, hope the weather is kind.
It may be right windy but the sun is shining and bathing them in sunlight
That fish is still huge, Titch has barely made inroads into it!! Having a chunner to it.
What do you mean, are you going to eat all of that yourself??
of course I am!!
Please tell me Middle youngster got that . Who brought it?
Oh, I can tell. EJ brought it. BIG fish
Cirrus Please tell me Middle youngster got that . Who brought it?
Yes Middle got it. EJ brought it in.
