Mike, here is the intro. Thanks. Karen
Last season Maya, the resident Manton Bay female, surprised us arriving back 12 March the earliest date ever recorded at a UK public nest. The resident male, Blue 33(11), her mate since 2015, arrived two days later on 14 March and the pair successfully raised two healthy chicks. More details about the Manton Bay nest, including a table of the breeding data, can be found here.
Here’s wishing Maya and Blue 33 a safe journey home and for another successful season.

I wrote the post below in 2013 Sheila. I can't fine any pics though, but I can't use this new forum very well.
Well at least I managed to load a pic. I'm dreading any osprey returns as I can't figure this site out anymore
Edit: I have found the video of this that I think you posted a couple of years ago. http://www.ospreys.org.uk/were-back/

(It seems to me that unless we quote the whole post it doesn't show up in a shaded box, thus making it confusing as to what's quoted and where it ends. But I just did quote the whole post and it still didn't get shaded so I've italicised it.)

Great effort so far, STARLING, both for finding the info and for managing to get it posted :-* Please keep trying - we're all in it together, and I am very discouraged as a result of the latest long silence :'(

Half daycam ;)
.It only stayed a few seconds:
And now we have a beautiful blue morning :)
ENS currently. Good morning MC
AS I posted an EG flew on to the nest!
Good morning, MIKE :) You just missed an altercation between 2 EGs:
At that time the top cam froze twice, and I think it's now lagging farther behind the bottom cam.
