We can expect to see her lay her second egg soon.    

Karen, Thanks for the new thread.

Thank you for the new thread, Karen :-*

Checking thru from midnight, Maya has been peaceful - she eventually have us a good egg view, even making it look like TWO eggs (due to straw, I expect):

That's more like it ;)

I doubt I shall be here for the morning.

The site it seizing up since 03:00 - as predicted by Ian(?) - I know it was a fella ;)

EDITING IN:

Blue33 dangled himself down onto the nest:

Maya got up and flew and 33 took over:

Last post for tonight :)  Happy morning to you all!

I have tried to post on Ipad but its been hanging there for at least 10 minutes.   

I thought there was two eggs there when I looked too Scylla.....

_{EDIT: During our painful morning - this was the post that never posted, even after sitting there for 3 hours.}   

_{"Thank You for starting the new thread Karen" - how painful is this trying to post.....}  

Good Morning MARY and ALL What's happening to the site Took me for everfor it to open and then another age for this thread to open so not going to bother with any others at the moment

MARY certainly looks like 2 eggs in above capture

Good morning! You were lucky, MARY & PATILY, I've been trying to get on since 09:00 !!!

It's still like almost-set cement.

Change over as Maya returns No sign of eggs as view blocked by clump of moss 33 flies off and back immediately for a successful mating

Looks like we are back up and running again?
