Just looking at Maya on the nest and she seems to have a pink bib or could it be a trick of the light.

All seems quiet here which is just what we want - a nice, peaceful time for Maya and 33.
Maya incubating just now .

33 arrived at some point and Maya seems to be grumbling at him.....not panting
Maya has been calling for ages.
33 arrives and is wiping his beak! Surely he hasn't had a fish and eaten it all??
Maya continues to call then rises and flies off leaving 33 to incubate
Maya returns
33 takes off as Maya takes over incubating
Hopefully 33 arrives with a fish as Maya is still calling
Good Morning All
A nice sunrise this morning, I think it is 33 who is incubating at the moment, but I can never really tell for sure until they stand up
