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.

Birdies LG DU update.
Uber-enhanced snaps !!!
And this one. I was sat sittin', arm outstretched ready and waiting and waiting to hit the hotkey to capture Maya's fly-off with fish, and was completely brilliant as to speed of reaction - but I don't think you can see the fish :'(

Good morning, JANE :) Yes, and lovely reflection on the water - better do a snap :)
Good Morning All
Lovely sunrise Scylla, you managed to get a bird on the nest, when I took the sunrise the nest was empty :-) So I won't post it.
Have had lots of problems with my PC this morning :-( so know how you feel Scylla when you have many machines all doing different things.

Morning All - thanks for all the updates
Maya has just arrived followed quickly by 33
Morning Mike - very odd! Can only suggest that you give it a good clean out ie history browsing data etc to clear the cache.
And speaking of issues! A few moment I was flung out and got this message
I've signed back in and all OK but how strange!
33 has just arrived with a stick. Quick potter about and now having a lie down.
