Osprey chick found dead at Rutland Water with wound on its side
A social media post from the group shared a timeline of events.It stated 3R6 took off from the nest at about 21:31 BST on Sunday and there was a splash "shortly afterwards"."At 21:41, with both 3R5 and 3R8 on the nest, we then see Maya take off from the perch and do a fly around the nest," the post added."At this point we see 3R6 in the water, making his way towards the shore."The decision was made to not intervene last night due to the challenging conditions and not wanting to disturb the other Osprey, particularly 3R8 who has yet to fledge."The post added evidence will be reviewed to "see if any light can be shed on this sad situation".
