Both male and female osprey were spotted today around the nest. The female was perched in the nest, while the male was perched on the same light pole about 2m below nest.
There was no sign of an osprey in the nest or on the light structure. There were a few other osprey in the area, but it is hard to determine which nest they belong to because it is so condensed in this area.
One adult and one nestling present. They are each preening themselves, perched upon the edge of the nest. By now the chick is quite old but there is still no sign of fledging.
One adult and nestling easily visible. The nestling is growing rapidly. Upon arrival the adult flew the nest, circled, and landed. The adult flew away after ten more minutes. After the adult left the chick moved from the edge of the nest to the center.
There are both adults in the nest. The nestling is quite large, brown, and fluffy. It is ruffling its feathers and adjusting itself. Over the course of twenty minutes the female and chick sat down in the center of the nest and the male took flight.
One adult osprey seen tending to one nestling, feeding or grooming the young. Though two nestlings were observed a month ago, since that sighting there has only been one nestling visible. The adult osprey got up and flew away to perch on a nearby telephone wire.
Overcast, drizzling weather. No osprey visibly present in this nest. Perhaps the weather offered a good hunting opportunity. There was a little bit of movement in the nest, which were probably the nestlings sighted in previous weeks.
Female osprey seen sitting in the center of nest. Two nestlings were seen popping up briefly. Male osprey on nearby lightpole but may not necessarily be the male osprey occupying this nest.
From the normal vantage point it appeared as if there were osprey present. However, upon walking to a nearby nest and glancing back with binoculars a female was apparent sitting in the middle of the nest. The head of one nestling was briefly seen when the female readjusted herself.
Both male and female osprey were present. Quickly after arrival the male circled, flying ~10ft above me. While the male astutely circled the nest the female was seen tending to nestlings. Two nestling heads were briefly visible. The male repeatedly circled and returned to the nest.
Male and female osprey were laying low in nest next to each other and did not move. Last week it appeared as if the adult ospreys were catering to nestlings, but no sighting of a nestling was made.
Male osprey perched next to the nest platform on the light pole, and did not move. The female osprey was perched on the side of the nest and seemed to be interacting with nestlings inside of the nest. Unfortunately the nest is very high up and I couldn't get visual confirmation of actual nestlings living in nest. However, the female osprey was bending over nest and opening beak and interacting with most likely two young.
There was a male and a female osprey in nest. Male was perched on side of nest, occasionally shuffling feathers and shifting position. Female seemed to be in the incubation posture with a flat back. Neither birds left the nest
