An osprey named Kielder has become the 150th chick to fledge in Northumberland.

The milestone comes 17 years after the rare birds returned to breed in the county for the first time in more than two centuries.

In 2009, a single nest produced three chicks.

Since then, a dedicated conservation effort has supported the ospreys’ recovery, with multiple nests now established across Kielder Forest.

Alex MacLennan, recreation and public affairs manager at Forestry England, said: "It’s a great achievement to reach 150 successfully fledged chicks since 2009."
