Oh no Robbo, no need to be sorry! (I should've been more accurate what I meant ) I just thought you might want to see some added info about that osprey

Sorry, forgot some pics -

08 April, early evening.
In the nest yellow moss and pieces of bark.. EJ waits for a fish.

Odin and long ordered fish.

09 April, noon.
EJ wonders what (on earth), Odin has brought the nest.

Good morning
Ej is on the nest, and calls. Odin came with new nest material, flew away and came back for a mating.

Good Evening

The nest is like a piece of art! - Odin flew to the branch, behind the nest in the middle (a head can be seen). EJ returned and started calling Odin. Odin didn't react, so she let self a bit snoozing - only a bit. zzz, Odin came and left. Later also EJ flew somewhere, maybe to some branch to wait him come back.

Odin brought yet a fish to the nest, EJ took it, both seemed exceptionally silent, looked each others. After some time EJ flew with the fish. Odin stayed, he moved nest material and worked with the nest cup!... this time of evening, almost dark... then he flew off. I think he is now on the branch near to the nest. EJ probably is still eating somewhere further away.

The nest is empty, it was not yet the right time.
