Nesting Diaries
Finally these two ospreys have smartened up. Moved a few branches over to a live tree. Nest growing larger. One osprey in tree where nest is and one osprey flew by with a fish in talons.
two ospreys in area of last year's dead tree where the nest blew out in and was crushed in a storm. I think this pair may go for another architectural miracle and try to rebuild here. This osprey is one of the two that are hanging around.
this nest building on top of remaining part of tree seems unlikely to stay perched as being erected, many sticks already on the ground
sitting osprey in nest, cannot see if chicks
one osprey sitting on branch above nest from last year
observed 2 adult ospreys in nest. One adult was feeding 2 chicks.
Eagles were adding twigs to this nest from 2018 but as of 2nd week in March 2 Ospreys have moved in
seen two adults from May - July. Never seen any chicks but it may of been because of nest position and golfers constantly on hole 13

1 osprey sitting in nest, one osprey sitting in tree
2 ospreys flying around nest, landing on nest
One osprey sitting in nest, one osprey sitting on a branch in the same tree.
Have seen a pair of Bald Eagles hanging in tree next to nest remaining from 2018. Some twigs on ground, may have added some building to that nest.
