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.

I can't see that Blue33 has appeared yet, but am sure I saw the perch bounce a long while ago.

Can't see from the glare who is incubating
Morning all and thanks for all the earlier captures and updates.
Mike, Maya's tail didn't half look frosty this morning. I couldn't post but caught the sunrise but for once! It was lovely to watch the nest with the sun rising.
I have noticed that Maya is now checking the eggs more as I expect she will be feeling movement and of course listening.
