Great news! The breeding pair returned again for another year, and are raising three chicks.
About this breeding pair of ospreys
The ospreys that favour Foulshaw Moss Nature Reserve, near Witherslack in Cumbria, as their breeding ground, migrate to their wintering grounds - most likely West Africa or Europe - in Autumn.
The male osprey, identified by his 'White YW' leg ring, hatched at Bassenthwaite in 2008. The female osprey, identified by her 'Blue 35' leg ring, hatched at Kielder in 2010.
Without your support we couldn't set up, maintain and keep these cameras running.
If we raise more donations than is needed for this year’s osprey webcam, any additional funds will be used to protect Foulshaw Moss Nature Reserve, on which the ospreys depend.
