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.

Unknown said:How do I get enormous pics like Scylla please
Your snap was only 543px wide, Cirrus. You'll have to enlarge the cam on your screen so that snaps are bigger*, then drag 'n drop them into the posting box without touching the Insert box. Try it out on the Photo Upload thread, as there's nothing but an empty nest here.
*EDIT - OR you can resize the snaps bigger in IrfanView, that's very quicik to do if you haven't space on your screen for a bigger view of the cams.

She's back on the nest

Good to know MB have confirmed. They were quick off the mark! I expect Maya is off fishing, and will return with one soon! No, she isn't fishing, she has landed again!
And she has flown off again Cirrus: I can only help with Microsoft. I use the Snip tool. PM me if you think I can help

CIRRUS - I use Greenshot and find it really good. Hopefully you will find something suitable :-) Crow returned to the nest just now and looking for eggs!

It has flown and hopefully does not hang around and annoy Maya and 33 especially when the eggs arrive.
