Nest Location Description: April 2021 - This nest hasn't existed in years. The location is far too near and active eagle nest to allow ospreys to exist here. March 2017 - This nest no longer exists. The tower is clean of any nesting material. Numerous observations in 2017, 2018, and now many observations in March 2020 still show this nest does not exist, and has not existed for at least the past four years. It should be removed from the database.
