News as of May 27th

The osprey pair seem very happy in their new location--the female is busy incubating her eggs - likely to be 3 & it is believed the first was laid on either the 26th or 27th April. Hatching should be around the 4th to 6th June.

Although there aren't any nest cameras this year because of the change of nest site the new location is providing closer views for visitors to the site & is enabling photographers to capture images of the Bassenthwaite adult ospreys for the first time.These 2 are taken by Steve & Ann Toon on behalf of the Lake District Osprey Project
