15 March 2019 - The wait is over... a lot of calls have been coming in about the mystery ringed osprey... can confirm she's number 25, the female that has been spotted flying around the area already!
Sadly not 33...

The family is home! I guess the other will have to find another nest, i.e. the mystery osprey #25.

Rutland Osprey Blog - Egg-citing times!

By Marie Dipple on April 2, 2019

The moment you’ve all been waiting for.. and we thought we were treading on egg shells waiting for 33 to return… not so anymore! On the 02 of April, following a very torrential start to the day, our soggy pair successfully laid their first egg! Maya was seen sitting in the same position for a while and was looking underneath herself and shuffling around.

And then when she shifted to stand up a beautiful little jewel appeared!

The holy trinity! By Marie Dipple on April 8, 2019

It seems very fitting that, with the Easter holidays not too far away, Maya has been getting busy producing her beautiful eggs and incubating them in all sorts of weather! This morning, we tried to analyse the footage from the nest to see if she had laid her third egg, and we were rewarded at 11am as 33, who was incubating at the time, shuffled around and revealed three eggs underneath him!

Maya goes Fourth…By Marie Dipple on April 11, 2019

At 9.05 this morning, Maya had been shuffling around for half an hour after a swap over with 33… she stepped to one side and revealed a fourth egg!

Changing places at dawn, 33 takes over incubation of the 4(!) eggs in his brood from Maya. Never a moment's rest!
