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.
Sure is Karen

Hi Kate & Mike :-) ... I do feel sorry for this fish - its still living!
But it is good to see Maya eating and building up her strength after her long migration and for the season ahead.
Doh! Screens frozen
Pleased she's caught a beauty but I wish she had knocked it on the head before eating it !
Cams down - must be overload - Rutland just tweeted about the huge fish with a link to the webcam!!!
They seem to be struggling with the load.
Back up now and Maya tucking in. I think she will eating for a while!
Are these her flags of achievement CHOL:):): hope they are not damaged.
