Maya and 33 to feature on BBC East Midlands Today, this evening
33 has arrived with a stick and trampled over the eggs!
33 can be so clumsy at times!

Morning ALL - Day 19
I too hope the eggs are OK but their eggs must be a lot tougher than we think as we have seen 33 many times trample over them!
As Patily says, it does look choppy here
Birdies LG DU update.
Maya has returned. Very stiff breeze knocking her off balance and into 33 as she places the sticks he left earlier
Soon they swap over - 33 rising to let Maya take over incubating their four eggs

Gosh 4 eggs Karen! I'd missed that. Must pay more attention.
