ADDED CRUISE ON SATURDAY MORNING
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to spend an evening searching for fishing ospreys aboard the Rutland Belle with Dr. Tim Mackrill, a leading expert on ospreys and their reintroduction in the UK. Tim will discuss the science and stories behind the success of this iconic species, sharing insights about their migration across the planet and the unifying power of ospreys in achieving conservation goals. As a true champion of the species, there is no better guide to help you observe ospreys in their breeding habitat or to recount the remarkable story of their return to England after a 200-year absence.
Setting sail from Whitwell Harbour aboard the Rutland Belle, you’ll spend an hour and a half enjoying the picturesque surroundings of Rutland Water and the diverse wildlife that inhabits it. While we can’t guarantee that you’ll see a fishing osprey, we are confident that your chances are high, as we will navigate to areas of the reservoir where ospreys are frequently seen flying by or catching fish.
