A new month and lots to look forward to as we eagerly await these precious eggs which Maya and Blue 33(11) have devotedly protected, hatch!
For anyone new and just starting to watch the Rutland Manton Bay Webcam, here is a brief summary of the 2016 season so far:
The resident female, Maya returned 21 March. Her mate Blue 33(11) returned 27 March. Maya has laid three eggs, #1 on 4 April, #2 on 7 April and #3 on 10 April. Maya and 33(11) are currently sharing incubating duties and we should see a hatch around the second week in May.

Good morning Karen, Mike and Jane. I see a big piece of fish next to Maya so I guess everyone has been well fed.

Morning Noc
Maya enjoys a preen after having a bath. Fish has gone, so 33 must be having his share.
33 returns with the fish, after having his share and Maya feeds the chicks while dad looks on
33 has now flown and Maya continues feeding
