The Ospreys Are Back at Rutland Water!

We’re thrilled to welcome the first confirmed Osprey sighting of the year - at 08:28 we watched on the Manton Bay nest Live Cam the arrival of Osprey Female 25(10) (swipe for images!).

Following a record number of Osprey chicks fledged in a single year in 2024, we look forward to another new season filled with hope and new milestones for the Rutland Ospreys. This year, we’re hoping to see Rutland Water’s 300th Osprey chick—a true testament to nearly 30 years of conservation success!

Maya, Rutland Water’s most successful breeding Osprey, is expected back soon. Will she reclaim her nest once more?
Stay tuned via the live nest webcam on the Leicestershire & Rutland Wildlife Trust’s website: www.lrwt.org.uk/rutlandospreys.
