No post on Loch Garten blog indicating if a third egg has been laid. Should have been laid yesterday if all was well.

Loch of the Lowes will be expecting the second egg in the next 24 hours.

Loch Garten has had snow :snow: . EJ looks miserable. The sun looks to be shining so hopefully it will melt quickly.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!!!! Just about a disaster at Loch Garten. EJ incubating and Odin came in with a large stick. He dropped it on top of EJ who got up to move away and dislodge the stick. Unfortunately it fell into the cup of the nest and the eggs. She flew off and Odin started incubating. Hope none of the eggs were cracked.
