Interesanti, kas tik viss nav tajā zivjērgļu "rokasgrāmatā" ...
Izrādās, tēviņš nepieņems ligzdu kā savu, kamēr tur būs sveša tēviņa apaugļotas olas... Tad viņš varētu sākt pāroties ar Maiju un tikai pēc tam nest viņai zivis...

33 wants both the nest and the female, Maya, but the female will only accept him and allow him to mate with her, when all the eggs are gone. And only after a few matings he will begin to bring her fish, according the osprey rulebook for courtship, that is.
Also remember that 33 is a young bird from 2011, so he's only 3 years old and this is probably his first female and nest. It will take some time before he gets it right. At least he has already understood how nest building works.
But whatever happens, those eggs need to be gone first, because he doesn't accept the eggs of the rival (28) which he replaced.

The chance of romance

So what are the chances that Maya and 33(11) will produce a clutch of eggs together this season? We can only speculate. For the past two days he has seemed to ignore her, however today he has been attempting to mate with her, and he finally brought her a fish last night, which is a step in the right direction. Also, this morning, the third and final egg that remained in the nest cup has been kicked out, therefore there will be no more futile incubation.

The latest we have seen eggs laid at Rutland Water was 22 May. This was back in 2003, at one of the nests on private land. The female, 06(01), a translocated bird, was a youngster breeding at two-years-old, which is very unusual in itself. She paired up with male 03(98), also translocated, and they produced eggs very late on in the season. The eggs hatched at the end of June, the chicks fledged at the end of August and by late September they had set off on migration. Along with examples of late laying from nests elsewhere in the UK e.g. Dyfi last year, this proves that there is time for chicks to fledge successfully from eggs laid late.

However, in the above example, the late clutch of eggs was the first clutch. Maya has already laid a full clutch of eggs. So a second brood would rely not only on there being ample time for the chicks to develop before they need to migrate, but on Maya’s ability to produce healthy eggs. She has already put a lot of energy into producing three eggs. Ospreys are only meant to lay one clutch, therefore they put their all into it. She may not have the reserves left in her to lay another clutch of viable eggs. There have been cases of second clutches in Ospreys, for example, Loch Garten in 2007, but in this case the chicks were not strong enough to survive. Other factors may have played a part of course.

If 33 continues to bring in fish, if Maya is able to return to breeding condition, and if their mating attempts become more frequent and more successful, then we could potentially see more eggs this year. We cannot state anything for certain, but we are not ruling anything out.

If I tell you tomorrow I’m leaving

By Kayleigh Brookes on August 27, 2014

Recently, the question that everyone asks as they enter the Centre is “Are the Ospreys still here?” and then, at our affirmative answer, “When will they leave?” Well, as I have said previously, the answer we usually give is late August or early September, but given that this pair have not bred, that could differ for them. Ultimately, we just don’t know. Animal behaviour is always problematic to predict, which is not surprising, really, given that the behaviour of individuals rarely follows a set pattern.

According to records, Maya tends to buck the trend when it comes to migrating. Females are said to go first, before their juveniles, however this female always waits until all or most of her youngsters have left. In three of the four years she has raised young, Maya has migrated leaving one chick behind, and one year she left after they had all gone. Her partner, 5R(04), did not stick to the traditional beliefs about migration either. In two of his four years of breeding he did in fact leave last. However, in the other two, he left the nest before the female and one remaining chick.

It would seem that over the years she has bred, the dates that Maya has migrated have become steadily earlier, but always in September. In 2010 she left on 12th September, in 2011 on 9th, in 2012 on 3rd, and last year she migrated on 2nd. Prior to that, however, in the first year she spent at Rutland Water – 2009, when she did not breed – she migrated on 5th September.

In conclusion, it would seem that these dates tell us next to nothing, and no more light has been shed on the situation from collecting this information. Consequently, the answer to the question of when she will leave is still an “I don’t know”. We can speculate, of course, and it is entirely possible that this pair will stay later than usual, due to their bond with the nest, and the risk that once they have left it, another Osprey may try to stake a claim to it. Therefore, they may be the last two Ospreys in Rutland at the end of the season!

Ļoti emocionāls raksts... Jā, tā es arī jūtos, atvadoties no zivjērgļiem rudenī...
Un šajā ligzdā - es arī esmu pieķērusies 33, liekas, ka viņš tiešām ļoti daudz darīja, lai izveidotu ciešas saites ar Maiju. Gaidīsim nākošo pavasari viņus atpakaļ!

Farewell is a lonely sound

By Kayleigh Brookes on September 8, 2014

This morning dawned bright and fresh – a typical autumn day. I could see my breath in the cool morning air as I walked to my car, which was covered in condensation. The vision that greeted me as I drove over the top of Lyndon Hill was a sight to be savoured. The water was perfectly still, and the trees on Lax Hill, which are just beginning to turn various shades of brown and gold, were reflected in the mirror-like surface of the reservoir. The weak morning sun set off the scene by illuminating the striking colours of the trees, and making the surface of the water sparkle.

The sun’s strength increased throughout the morning, and it turned into a lovely warm day. Another perfect day for setting off on migration. Apparently 33(11) thought so too. He was seen this morning at 08:20, but he has not been seen since. It would therefore appear that he has left us too!

Yesterday, after 51(11) intruded briefly at Manton Bay, he flew off over the hide. The direction of his departure was due south. Therefore, it would seem likely that that was him leaving. This means that 33 was the only Osprey left in Rutland yesterday, and today he has made the decision to leave, as there is no longer a threat to his nest.

Maya has definitely gone, as we thought. We know then, that she left us sometime between 08:30 and 09:00 yesterday morning. We know that Ospreys’ migratory abilities are phenomenal, and based on the data we have received from 30(05)’s satellite transmitter, showing the speed of her progress, it is entirely possible that Maya could already be in France!

So here we are, Osprey-less, at the end of another season. It is weird to think that all the Ospreys have gone, it feels rather desolate. Looking at that live camera, expecting an Osprey to land on it any minute, then remembering that they won’t. Not until next year, that is! The Lyndon Visitor Centre will remain open until Sunday 14th September, and then it will close its doors for the final time this year. The Centre will re-open next spring, on Monday 16th March 2015.

So, will we look back fondly on 33’s time here in Manton Bay this year? To begin with, he didn’t do much to win our affections, what with chasing off 28(10) and erasing any hopes of his eggs hatching, and indeed any eggs hatching in Manton Bay at all. The fallout that followed 33’s arrival was both inevitable and heart-breaking. Suffice to say, he hasn’t been everyone’s favourite Osprey. However, he has won most of us over with his devotion to Maya and the nest over the last few months. His practice run this year should make him an excellent partner for Maya next season.

Next year, 33 must ensure he gets back in time to stop any other Ospreys moving in on his territory in the early spring. This year he arrived back on 13th April, so he will have to do better than that! He had no real pressing reason to arrive back early this year, but now he has a mate and a nest, and a duty to fulfil. So let’s hope he gets here in time!

Manton Bay nest

We’re currently waiting for the first Osprey to return to Rutland! Last year, the Manton Bay female, Maya, arrived on 17th March. Her mate of the previous four years failed to return and instead Maya spent summer 2014 with a young male Osprey, 33(11). Hopes are high that they will breed together for the first time this year.

There can only be one Mr Rutland! As of 17:30 this afternoon, the prestigious 03(97) is home!

That bird is nothing short of amazing. He’s superb. Wonderful. Unbelievable. Last year we nearly lost him, due to a wing injury he had sustained during the season. Had we not provided fish for him he would surely have perished, as his injury was too severe for him to fish for himself, or even to fly. After a little over a week, he seemed a lot better, and when the time came to migrate, his wing looked practically back to normal. Even so, we all harboured concerns about his strength and his ability to survive the arduous 3,000 mile journey to his wintering grounds.

Well, clearly he surpassed our expectations, and granted all our wishes! He not only made it to West Africa, but he made it back! I cannot describe how utterly thrilled we all are. We owe so much to this incredible Osprey – without him the Rutland Osprey Project would not be the outstanding success that it is. He is undoubtedly a superstar.

03(97) must have been hungry, because, instead of going straight to his nest, he visited the fish farm first! He is now safely back at the nest on which he has bred for the past fourteen years. Here’s to a successful fifteenth season for this eighteen year old Osprey.
