Korky said:I seem to recall she's laid 4 eggs before. Someone will enlighten me (please) - and I think some years, all 4 have made it to fledge???
Hi Korky, twice they've successfully raised four to fledge - 2019 and 2020. Maya had previously to then laid 4 eggs, but the fourth died not long after hatching and I think it was the second chick who died, an accident on the nest.
Yes, and 4 fledged! I don't have the details to hand due to other commitments and knowing that KAREN will happily furnish them :)))

WendyBartter said:Such amazing news! What is predicted hatching date now?
Hi Wendy, Maya's first hatch is usually around 39 days so we're looking at approx 12 May but with this pair anything goes lol
