Lovely reflections at MB this morning
I applaud your rant on LG MARY and this is another great female Do me have any idea how old she might be?
Maya has been there as long as we have been following Patily eg 2011, and I believe she was the resident female in 2010 but anything before that I don't know, also it would be a guessing game as to saying how old she was when she first arrived at MB.
Thanks MARY I wondered whether Rutland had ever speculated
Patily, The ukospreys website shows an unringed female at the Manton Bay nest from 2008, mating with male Green 5R(04). I presume that female is the bird formerly known as Mrs 5R and now known as Maya. That means that Maya is at least 12 or 13 years old and possibly older. I hope an expert will correct me if that is wrong!
