All OspreyWatch Nests

This nest has been in use for several years. However, this year, the previous nest location and all possible nest locations on the pier have been covered to prevent nesting, as there is a plan in place to remove all creosote pilings in the Sound. The pair has begun construction of a new nest on a large concrete structure in the "Central Meadow" of the golf course.

Taller that usual nest at the treetops of the scrub pines.

Marsh area no activity.

Literally in a homes backyard marsh area. Only about 45ft from the residence. Home has a large dock about 30 ft away.

Due to an overpopulation of ospreys and local residents wishing to stop a pair of ospreys nesting on their expensive boats, a small platform was hastily erected 4/20/2012 to accommodate a pair without a nesting site. The structure is not to specification, and situated on a pier just north of St. James Episcopal Church, on the west bank of the Lower Machodoc Creek, off the Potomac River.

Nest is situated on red #4 channel marker just north of Shepherds Point / The "Narrows" in the Lower Machodoc Creek, off the Potomac River

East of College Creek bridge, just off Colonial Parkway

This nest is on the unused swing bridge itself. There is another nest located right behind it, as well. in 2014 it was taken over by nesting Peregrines; Ospreys nesting on small radio tower nearby.

This nest has been successful for the past three years, including three fledglings in 2011, and is active again in 2012. It was washed away by Hurricane Sandy in 2012 and no activity last year.

Nest on cell tower.

Marshland near some trees. Not far from homes.

It can be seen by I 64. However, there is no place to stop for me to report clearly that there are any eggs. I saw two ospreys perched at and in the nest at this time. This nest is active right now.

This nest is in a cedar tree, in the James River, at the First Colony marina beach. The ospreys aren't spending much time at the nest; their behavior will be monitored.

Located in heavily populated Dowses beach in the village of Osterville in the Town of Barnstable.

The nest is on a platform off of my yard in Knotts Island Bay (Mill Cove I believe). This is my first season observing the full cycle.

Near the 15 mile marker on Hwy 62, Eagle Point, Oregon

I've seen Osprey here for at least two years.

At least two fledged from this site last year.

Former Eagles nest that became an Osprey nest. Fell down over the winter during a storm but rebuilt this season by returning Osprey.

Sandwich Town Neck. To the right of parking lot. Several donated benches facing the nest platform.

Atop a communication tower at a DP&L substation. Made from dead tree branches ranging from 1/4 to 2 inch in diameter. A female was found dead within 50 yards of the nest on April 15th. The female had a wing span of over 6 foot and appeared to have a broken right wing. The bird has been preserved and headed to ODNR. A new female, I assume, has been spotted on April 19th.

Nest is constructed in stadium lights overlooking the first base line on a public school baseball field.

This pair has been here at least three years.

Watched last year. Successfully fledged at least one.

The Glen Cove Road nest is a large stick nest situated on a cell tower.

This nest platform is located in Prospect Bay near Cabin Creek Rd. on the Reedy property. It has been in place since 2011and has been used each year, and occupied in 2014. The pair produced young successfully each year.

This platform is located on the North side of CBEC property directly across from the Oyster Cove Community. It is tucked away in the "nostril" of the site. It has been in place for 4 years, and successful in 2013 and now occupied in 2014.
