Brilliant news about Jake Hope he continues to grow better Is he eating OK?
moffer I am recording, but I have to feed the dogs. Jake is doing better today :o) He is moving a lot easier and less wobbly. I think that the steroids are working.

Forgot to say GOOD MORNING to everybody....and a great start to the day in many ways including the brillliant sunshine on mum and brood
Did I dream it or did somebody post a chick at Manton Nothing on their site yet
What about Dyfi....when is hatching due?????
Thanks Patily and Clare. G'morning too :o) Yes Jake is eating well again.
The chicks are getting louder and restless. EJ is trying to keep them all under her and is shuffling in circles. The Cuckoo has been calling again, very close to the nest.
One of the Cuckoo from earlier.
Loch Garten stats. and All the important links for LG.
Odin the Magnificent has arrived as EJ takes a break.
07.21 Another feed from fish 1. #3 is at the back this time, but that's ok. He can't manage a lot yet, and has already had 2 bits of fish.
I hate this pixellation!! How do I wipe out something I've posted? I thought I heard and saw Odin but it was EJ. Sorry to confuse everyone.
Good sunny morning everyone and many thanks for the great videos, stills and reporting. Good to see that #3 is getting amongst'em. Saw 1+2 giving 3 a display of head butting at 1st feed.
The hatching video was great to study...so many things going on..EJ feeding 1+2, Odin fiddling with sticks, #3 gets a laser fired overhead, and the stares from EJ and Odin as #3 emerged! Fab stuff :-)
Good news all round then, MOFFER with Jake improving and SCYLLA with new Hi-Fi albeit like spaghetti junction there ;-p
Aha, belated Happy Birthday SCYLLA :-* (1st use of your symbol ;-P)
Good on chick 3 I was worried it might miss out on the feeding but like Tich a few years back he made it to the front of the queue What a great Mum EJ is every chick getting fed.as for Odin he truly is magnifico!!!
#3 gets fed again, aww
Wow, #3 got several bits of fish. EJ is cleaning up ready to settle.
Clare, I wasn't in the room when EJ flew, but I have it recorded. I'll have a look now.
Edit, Sorry Clare, EJ didn't fly, just had a good flap. No sign of Odin.
EJ was reaching well into the nest cup to give #3 his share. I was afraid she may slide down the hill and fall on the chicks . The other two are stuffed.

I hope Odin gets the hint if he delivers a fish very early in the morning he can snooze in the tree for several hours before EJ starts nagging for another fish LOL
07.21. After a good flap EJ resumes feeding. Third feed from fish 1. #3 gets his fair share as the other 2 are full. :o)
07.50 EJ is calling (she still has half a fish in front of her) perhaps she wants a comfort break.
