The purpose of this thread is to record observations, activity and captures of Rutland’s Manton Bay nest throughout the season.
The nest at Manton Bay has been in use since 2007 and its history can be found here.
I am sure I speak for us all in wishing Maya and Blue 33(11) a safe journey home and for another successful season at Manton Bay.
Oh Oh EG back again. :-)

Morning all, seems to be a bit of variety visiting the nest this morning :-)
Just before the male mallard, which Moffar mentions, there was another which was chased away when it landed.
