EJ broods little one underneath, 2nd sib at right wing side and 1st born in front of her.

I peeked in later and Odin's eating at home, osplet moves closer to him and then another sib comes nearer too. EJ has weeyin shaded so older sibs are being fed by papa
Odin keeps looking over at EJ and mama seems very relax with him - what a mate, partner, provider, protector, and last but not least feeds them too

checked rspb blog and its Odin first time feeding his dear precious osplets -


Its' nice way to finish up lots of left over fish

4:33.am Odin fly's in and chatters' to EJ she doesn't seem bothered or answered his calls - he stayed until 4:47.am
Beautiful sunrise for a pair of beautiful ospreys EJ & Odin.

osplets feeding earlier in the afternoon -

sleeping nest to each other


osplets in a row - waiting for daddys' next fish

Rainy day here too at loch garten, Odin drops fish 3:08pm
then feeding began instantly, then osplets waddle near EJ ready to snuggled down and brood - kind of day for staying in bed - underneath EJ where its warm and dry

19:11
It looks wet and horrid there - Mum is doing the umbrella thing!
The chicks are moving about - making it uncomfortable for her - and making little warbling cries!

EJ and osplets having same miserable weather as loch lowes - no fish deliveries so far. I've been watching for last two hours' Tho rain has tapered off and weather is looking better - Odin could be having same fish delay due to awful heavy downpours of rain showers' Oh speak of the devil, he landed with a good size fish for his hungry family. Just in time as Bossy was picking on sibs, now EJ's feeding them that will keep bruiser's beak busy eating & NOT pecking at other siblings :no:

5:06.pm fish at last

5:22.pm osplets and EJ relishing their meal

17:32
EJ is cleaning her beak on the branches!


17:35
We get a lovely clear view if the chicks here


17:36
Time for Mum to leave


Soon after Dad arrived - not with food - but one chick thought so and put the other ones in submission
Is that the one you are calling bruiser??

EJ cleans up fish scraps' and places stick elsewhere on the nest. Sun peek out for ahwile and gave osplets a chance to catch some rays




sunshine didn't last long - snaps taken earlier :nod:
