RUTLAND, MANTON BAY - AUGUST 2016

OK!  Cornish Barn Owls regretfully dismantled, browser set on 10-minutely refreshes (which will mean rather long interruptions, never mind, better than nothing).

Message from Chris Wood

Thanks so much for passing that on, KEITH :-)  Let's hope it's a simple fix, maybe a fuse or two to be replaced, fingers crossed.

10.18  Still down.  Keith, thank you for passing on the message from Chris.  I hope he is enjoying his last Sunday shift!

What a bonus for him to see Maya bathing.  I have never been so lucky to see any of them that close to the hide.

Keith, I second the thanks of Everyone for passing on the message from Chris about the storm knocking out the Rutland cameras.  We were driving home from Rutland yesterday afternoon and we had heavy rain with lightning for a time (which conveniently happened while we had lunch at the services).  The sky in one direction definitely said 'severe storms possible' so we knew things were worse not far from where we were.

Thanks Scilla, love your series of the very busy 33! What a keen nestbuilder he is! And such a lovely couple with Maya, long may they return!

ROP have kindly done a super video of some of today's activities - thank you, ROP !!!

Seems the storm did some significant damage?

SCYLLA - Thanks for posting the link to that super video from MB yesterday, its wonderful.
