A very fresh fish arrives, so fresh it's still flapping, and at 11.19.43 it flaps right on top of the Rutland Osplet bashing it several times before big mum Maya pulls it out the way.

Get a front row view of our Manton Bay osprey nest at Rutland Water Nature Reserve, where our star pair Maya and 33 have nested together since 2015.
Thanks to generous donations to our Osprey Webcam Appeal last year, we have now installed brand new camera equipment. Our new webcams give a better view and can zoom, pan, and tilt! Not only this, but we have made sure the new system incorporates sound, giving you a fuller experience and deeper insight into the behaviour of breeding ospreys! So make sure you turn the sound up!
