RUTLAND OSPREYS - 2014

New blog from Rutland – Whats in a name

Looking for a new name for the Manton bay female or Mrs 5R as we know her .

Choices are Hera, Maya or Hali    - open to votes

Edit:  doesn't look like they hold much hope for 5R returning :-(

Thanks Karen I have voted

Thanks Karen. I have voted

I hope he gets better at fish delivery or it won'tbode well for any chicks. 5R was such a fine fisherman.

Thanks Karen, I've voted

The nagging will kick into his brain soon, especially when eggs arrive. However apart from Laddie at LOTL (who catches ginormous fish) I think all the females catch far bigger fish than the males. Must be to do with their size and weight they can carry.

Thanks KAREN I have voted but think it will be a long time beforeI stop thinking of her as Mrs 5R

Likewise Patily.

This year,to me she will still be Mrs MB, so will have to get used to the new name...

Thanks Karen for the update

So pleased I got to Rutland last year and saw 5R for myself. I'll always remember him flying down the resevoir and VERY SOON coming back with a fish.
