The whole blog :We have 3 eggs now, and that’s the important thing. 3 is the average clutch size, so we won’t be expecting another egg now. EJ has obviously already started incubating, and it can be anything from 35-42 days before the first chick will hatch out. Odin will take his turn incubating too, a modern man! In the meantime, there will plenty of fish – 2 already today!
Morning sun gold in nest, EJ is brooding, calls Odin... and rolls the eggs.
After EJ called Odin late evening, he came.. maybe they said good night, Odin left, darkness fell the highland ... EJ rolled eggs and continued brooding.
EJ broods - and calls... there's little bit rainy..

Odin takes over brooding the eggs from EJ
It is wonderful to see how pleased Odin broods.
