Third Osprey chick has hatched at Rutland Water
The Ospreys are on the Manton Bay nest
It's been confirmed the third Osprey chick has hatched on the Manton Bay nest at Rutland Water.
The Rutland Osprey Project confirmed on social media that around 10.48 today (14th May) they caught sight of the third chick.
The project says two fish have already been caught by the parents which it hopes will keep the chicks well fed.
The Rutland Osprey Project is run by the Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust, in partnership with Anglian Water. They have a webcam where the nest can be seen.
Female Osprey Maya and male 33(11) have bred together since 2015 and have raised 27 chicks so far.
This year the first egg hatched on the evening of the 9th May, while the second egg hatched on the 11th May.
The eggs were all laid in April - and there should be one more left to hatch.
Maya's partner who is called 33(11) caught seven fish yesterday to help keep the chicks well fed.
