Cont from Manton Bay - March 2025
The Season so far: Blue 33(11) returned @ 16:12 on 14 March and Maya @ 09:52 on 17 March. The pair quickly re-united their partnership and have been busy building their nest in preparation for their eggs.

Maya is due to lay her first egg anytime from now so it's going to be a very eggciting start to April.
33 brings a clump decaying matted matter,,plonks it almost on top of Maya, then he endeavours to push her off the eggs, but she ain't budging Ha!!, eventually he fles and her expression looks to say 'what the heck you doing now Ha!!
Maya breaks upp the clump
33.brings a nice size headless fish for maya who was eager to snatch and fly.
33 takes over from Maya, before she flies,,I love how 33 uses his feet to gently get among the eggs.
