This nest was taken over by a Canadian Goose in 2018 and we have not seen an osprey on it since. Last week, we noticed that the nest is gone.

In 2016, this pair had 2 chicks that fledged. Last year, I don't know what happened. They were gone very early and there were no signs of eggs or chicks. No activity yet this year.

We don't get to check this nest very often, unfortunately. The last time we checked, there was one osprey incubating. Every other time we checked, the other bird was in a nearby tree. Unfortunately, we have not seen it since, but we did find a dead osprey in the road a few blocks over. This whole area is right on the river. Other than not seeing but 1 bird lately, there is no way to tell if the dead bird was the partner to the one incubating.

We first noticed this nest pair was back on Saturday, 3/14/15. One osprey was in the nest and the other was sitting in a nearby tree where we had seen an eagle all Winter. We just assumed the large bird sitting there was still the eagle, until it swooped over and into the nest with the other osprey. I hope this pair has better luck this year. We didn't find them until late last season and shortly after, we saw a dead chick in the nest.

We have not seen any activity at this nest at all since we saw the dead chick.

We first saw this nest on July 19, 2014. There was one parent and 2 chicks. We checked it the following week and still saw a parent and 2 chicks. Just a few days ago, we checked it and there appears to be a dead chick, from what we can tell from across the river. There was no parent around and we don't know if both chicks were dead or if it was only one.
