A conservationist said she "burst into tears" after an osprey landed on nesting poles in Devon.
The Tamar and Tavy Osprey Project installed the nests on top of 56ft (17m) high telegraph poles in June 2024 on farmland in Warleigh Barton, Plymouth, with the hope it would help the rare birds to breed.
A year on from the installation, the group said a female osprey had landed on one of the nests.
Elsa Kent, who helped set up the project, said while the birds had not bred in the nests, the fact an osprey had used one of them was exciting and made all the work worthwhile.
