Ospreys are breeding in Northumberland, and thanks to the Kielder Partnership (with help from the RSPB and Northumberland Wildlife Trust) you can come and see them.%20flying%20left%20(both%20wings%20raised)%20180_tcm9-30242.jpg "Adult osprey flying")
Visit the viewpoint at the Mounces Forestry Commission car park, off the C200 just west of Leaplish Waterside Park anytime until Monday 27 July.
To protect the ospreys, the viewpoint is two miles from the nest, so close views into it are not possible. But don't worry, you'll still get to see the ospreys as volunteers will be on hand every Friday-Sunday with telescopes.
If you visit the viewpoint on a weekend, please park at Leaplish Waterside Park and take the Osprey shuttle bus to and from the viewpoint. It gets very congested otherwise!
Check out Visit Kielder, or phone us on 0191 233 4300 for further info.
Thanks to Northumbrian Water for providing the telescopes, and also Northumberland National Park who have part-funded the viewing facilities.
