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.
Two ospreys on the nest!
Ringed ... Is this 33(11) home?
Another capture. Looking comfortable on the nest .. I'm sure it's him :-)))))))))
Yes it is possible.

Blast it! Where's my magnifying glass?
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Maya returns with the fish,
They both fly off then back
Oh, together again :-))) I am just jumping with joy

It is 33(11) :-) Oh this has just made my day. What an Easter gift :-)
Woo Hoo! I'm delighted that this lovely couple will be giving us some more adorable viewing this year!
Maya flying on and off the nest with the fish!
