BIRD lovers can once again follow the lives of a pair of goshawks as they bring up their family in a secret location in the New Forest, thanks to a live nest cam.

The Date With Nature camera will be watching mum, dad and the freshly hatched chicks until September 2.

Once hunted to extinction in the UK, goshawks now haunt woodland glades undisturbed.

The images will also be beamed to the Forestry Commission's New Forest Reptile Centre, which is located two miles south west of Lyndhurst off the A35.

This is the sixth year Carnyx Wild, the Forestry Commission, the National Park Authority and RSPB have screened live footage of the lives of goshawks.
