MANTON BAY – JUNE 2020

Continued from Manton Bay – May 2020

The history of the Manton Bay nest, breeding stats and links to previous threads can be found here

The season so far: The resident pair both returned on 16 March - Blue 33(11) at 07:12 and Maya at 13:16. For the second consecutive year, Maya laid four eggs – the first on 29 March followed by another three first seen on 4, 6 and 9 April. Maya and Blue 33(11) faithfully incubated the four eggs and on day 38, the first chick hatched 6 May c13:20 followed by Chick #2 on 8 May c06:10, Chick #3 on 10 May c14:45, and Chick #4 on 13 May c20:45.

All four chicks have thrived under the protection of Maya and Blue 33(11) who has once again proved to be a fantastic provider for his family.

In two/three week’s time, the chicks will be ringed and we’ll learn a bit more about them.

Now the chicks have developed more of their sub-adult plumage they will start to be producing an oily substance, helping to protect them from the wet. This substance is secreted by a large preen gland, scientifically known as the 𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱, which is situated at the base of the tail feathers.
