Loch Arkaig osprey cam
Our nest camera in the Scottish Highlands shows osprey family life unfold each summer.
The story so far
Our live nest cameras, supported by players of People's Postcode Lottery, began streaming footage of breeding ospreys from Loch Arkaig Pine Forest back in 2017.
Our resident pair Louis and Dorcha hatched three chicks in 2025. One of the chicks sadly died, but two – named Breac and Darach – fledged successfully. Louis and Dorcha left the nest on migration in August – we look forward to their return in spring 2026.
Support our work
We protect trees, restore woods and create thriving havens for wildlife across the UK, from incredible temperate rainforests and precious ancient woodlands to rare Caledonian pinewoods like Loch Arkaig. They're refuges for threatened red squirrels, mighty centuries-old trees and countless other species that can't survive without them. But we can't keep them safe without your support.
