Thank you Ferenz :wave:

Hmmm ... 'only' three ? :whistling:
I've watched last video of Rutland Waters - no signs of a fourth egg, they said,
and I counted so much for four again ... :rolleyes:
It seems, Maya spoiled me too much last years :mrgreen:
... but three is still absolutely fantastic ! :headroll:

❗️ The first chick has hatched at around 15:18 this afternoon.❗️
It still remains in the bottom half of the eggshell, but Maya is doing a great job in making sure it stays dry and warm.

The first chick is so close to hatching!! 🐣
EDIT: This took a tad long to upload so it's already out of date! More up to date news is coming very soon....

❗️❗️ BREAKING NEWS: The second chick from the Manton Bay nest has just hatched at 19:48 this evening! Watch the moment here... 🐣🐣


https://www.facebook.com/RutlandOspreyP ... 158848484/
33(11) brought in what we believe is a Carp and Maya carefully fed the two-day old chick! 🐥🦅
We are eagerly anticipating the hatching of the second chick any day now, as it has been 38 days since Maya laid it.

Unfortunately, the third egg at the Manton Bay nest appears to have been damaged at some point. However, after Maya moved the eggshell around it became clear that the egg was addled and wasn't viable, reasons for which we don't know. It is sad news, although having two healthy chicks is fantastic!

https://www.facebook.com/RutlandOspreyP ... 830660515/
Maya and 33(11) are doing a brilliant job of making sure the two chicks are being well fed. Today, 33(11) has caught a Perch, which you can see Maya feeding the chicks with in this clip, and also a Pike earlier this morning 🦅

Thank you, I just watched the video on yt last night :-(((
It is very sad. Four eggs and beautiful healthy juveniles last years, this time three eggs and only two babies.
May they grow healthy and happy, anyway this is happy nest
and excellent parents :2thumbsup:

About one month ago Lady Hawk put an interesting wider comment below her video from Big Bear Eagles nest, after a raven broke their egg and ate the embryo. Her comment is about bald eagles' eggs but I think it similarly is going at ospreys' eggs, and that is what she says:

''When an egg fails to hatch after being incubated for over 40 days it is because it is either infertile or nonviable. I found some information on this from Raptor Resource Project I would like to share.
Infertile eggs occur when the ovum is not fertilized before it begins its journey down the female's oviduct. We know that bald eagles copulate frequently before and during egg laying, which helps assure that sperm is present in the right place (the infundibulum) at the right time (when the ovum arrives).
Since female birds don't have a way to reject or stop the egg-laying process once it begins, incomplete, poorly timed, or insufficient copulation can result in unfertilized eggs.
Here we can see the chick started to develop and was pretty far along in the process when it suddenly died. A nonviable egg occurs when an embryo fails to develop properly and dies. This is mostly likely to happen within the first three days of incubation (embryonic organs fail to develop) or the last three days immediately prior to hatch (major organ failure becomes apparent or hatch starts but cannot be completed). Non-viability can happen for a number of reasons, including:

1) Insufficient incubation. Incubation is fairly complex! Eggs must be kept at the proper temperature and humidity and turned regularly. Freshly laid eggs can spend time in the zone of suspended development (roughly 28.4 to 80.6°F) with no harm to the egg or embryo, but eggs must remain between about 99 and 104°F once development starts. Time off the eggs regulates humidity and helps keep pores from clogging. Turning or rolling the eggs prevents the developing embryo from sticking to the side of the egg, brings it into contact with fresh 'food' and important nutrients supplied by the yolk and white, and assures proper development of the membranes that exchange gas and protect the embryo from contaminants.

2) Piercing or cracking of the shell. If the egg shell is pierced or cracked before the embryo is fully developed, it will die. This can happen if the egg is jostled too vigorously, stepped on, or damaged or destroyed by an intruder - something that has been documented in many species of birds.

3) Bacterial or chemical contamination. Although the embryo is protected by a shell and layers of membrane, contaminants can sometimes make their way into an egg and impede or kill the embryo inside it. There really is no way for us to determine why Jackie and Shadow's chick stopped developing at this stage - but at least we did know the egg was fertile. Hopefully they will have a successful season next year!''

SilverGilr, thank you for bringing this information here! :thumbs:

i added the word 'searcheggdevelopment' in the end of your post. i hope you don't mind, and i hope you let it be there. it is a search word which is first in the list of the FAQ-list in the Latvian WTE topic.
the egg development is a question which is repeatedly asked about, and the description by Lady Hawk is very informative. :nod:

thank you SilverGirl! :2thumbsup:
i don't think that adding the search-word is necessary. people will find your other articles after they have found the first article.
... but i added it anyway. :D
thank you!

❗ BREAKING NEWS: male 055 has returned for the first time since he left Rutland after fledging from the Manton Bay nest in 2019!
We are really excited that he has made it back, and he is the first of 2019's cohort to return. He intruded at the Manton Bay nest on Sunday morning, popping in to say 'hello' to his parents.
These fantastic shots of him were captured by one of our wonderful volunteers Chris Wood.

33(11) regularly adds sticks to the nest at Manton Bay, sometimes he doesn't always pick the right one. This morning he found this particular stick a little tricky to manoeuvre!

❗️ TODAY'S HEADLINE NEWS❗️
We have had a really exciting morning today as it was time for the two chicks to be ringed at Manton Bay. This year we have one female, which has the ring number 095, and one male, with the ring number 096. The male chick is the oldest of the two and we will be sharing more details on the morning in a blog post later on!

🦅 NEWS JUST IN 🦅
We have just received the incredibly exciting news the 150th juvenile to fledge from since 2001 has just returned to Rutland for the first time!
Male 056 hatched on 13th May 2019 and was one of the four chicks Maya and 33(11) raised at the Manton Bay nest that year. After leaving for his first ever migration, it wasn't long before he was sighted again in January 2020 at his wintering grounds in Gambia by one of our volunteers Chris Wood, who was lucky enough to find him.

Excellent news regarding one of our 2019 birds! Male 059 fledged from one of our offsite nests in 2019 and this is the first time he has been recorded back in the UK 🥳

As soon as we had hit dry land after ringing the chicks yesterday morning, Maya landed on one of the perches next to the nest, as if nothing had happened. And it was only after a couple of hours later, 33(11) delivered this well-deserved breakfast for the chicks.
Catch up on yesterday's ringing by following the link below to our most recent blog update 👇
