The season so far:
33(11) and Maya both arrived back within hours of each other on the 22nd March. Maya surprised us this year by laying four eggs on the 4th, 7th, 10th and 13th April. Currently both adults are taking turns to incubate the eggs which are expected to hatch in the second/third week in May.

Hi KAREN
Morning PATILY
33 has just arrived. Standing by Maya just now.
I'll be glad when this wind ceases or even changes direction that Maya and 33 are facing us :-)
Edit: he's flown, was just a brief visit
Good Morning All
Maya or maybe its 33, cannot be sure, whoever it is its doing a lot of preening whilst incubating, sun is a huge white sphere on the horizon now, so won't include it

33 arrived, mantling. Maya has risen and while alert, doesn't look too bothered.
