Manton Bay Osprey Nest

This live HD webcam provides a close-up view of the osprey nest at Manton Bay in the Rutland Water Nature Reserve, Rutland County, England. Maya and 33(11) have been breeding at this nest since 2015. Rutland Water offers a rich wetland ecosystem with lagoons, islands, and birdwatching hides, and it is home to the first breeding ospreys in England. Key events in 2025 include Maya’s return on March 17, egg-laying in early April, and four chicks hatching in May. The chicks were ringed in June, but sadly, 3R6 passed away in July. This camera offers wildlife enthusiasts a window into the fascinating world of ospreys.
