One presumed juvenile on the nest. The sun glare didn't help when another osprey landed on the nest with a small fish. This osprey flew off a short time later and fished close by before we lost sight of her.

On this day 2 were observed in the nest. One adult landed in the nest, then flew to trees. Couldn't tell if any other osprey were in the area.

Observed from a boat moored in Northport Bay, with binoculars. 4 fledglings on the nest. 2 adults close but not on the nest. One of the 4 fledgers is flying. Pictures are as close as my zoom will get.
