Regularly see two at the nest, today just saw one hanging out.

03/17/2024 by lost_bird
Observed one osprey on the nest! The old nest blew off during the winter, so the progress on a new nest was obvious.

06/23/2023 by lost_bird
Posting a photo of two chicks on the nest.

06/14/2023 by ospreychick
I was looking at the nest on June 14 and saw 3 chicks in the nest!

06/02/2023 by saphyress
Consistently see two birds at the nest, not sure if any eggs or babies yet.

03/27/2023 by lost_bird
Saw one osprey on the nest and one eating a fish on a nearby utility pole. They likely arrived a few days ago but this was the first sighting (attaching photos).

06/05/2022 by saphyress
Just saw female yesterday. Male has been around steadily though.

05/04/2022 by lost_bird
Nest is clearly active.

04/12/2022 by lost_bird
Saw ospreys on the nest 2 days ago, not sure when they arrived.

07/22/2021 by lost_bird
Saw two chicks in the nest today.

04/23/2021 by lost_bird
Female is definitely incubating -- can see her low in the nest in photo -- but not sure when that started, would guess early April.

04/03/2021 by saphyress
Saw one bird keeping a lookout at this nest, there was a bird at the nest across the water as well.

03/31/2021 by lost_bird
Saw both birds on the nest today so the female must have arrived pretty recently. There's another one building a nest across the water so probably some competition going on.

03/29/2021 by saphyress
Saw the male flying around this nest today and was answered by another across the water.

Pair of ospreys in nest 10 AM/ Lone bird perched on pole in the late afternoon
