It sure looks like they are doing well and with 4! I am guessing lots of fish available?

Honestly, these might be the absolutely best osprey screen captures I have ever seen, partially because there are 4 and partially because of the camera, and partially because the moment and totally because they just are.

Four lined up waiting to eat,
making their opinions loud and clear,
Dad or mom says I have a fish right here,
just wait, stay lined up and you will get.....
your turn.

It’s been a miserable week all around Rutland water, and we’ve been watching Maya and her brood closely to make sure they’re managing ok in this weather. Osprey chicks are sturdy birds however, and seem to be growing well still despite all the wet weather and wind.

This morning, 33 brought back a large fish to the nest and this was welcomed by a very eager Maya and the chicks, whom she fed for almost an hour! As per usual, the three eldest siblings rushed in to get their fill, and then lay down with full crops, leaving the fourth chick complete access to the food source, and got a good full meal.

Hopefully the weather will improve over the weekend!
