Since this Wednesday April 5th a number of observers have seen a pair of ospreys inhabiting this nest .. I just took a picture of one of them sitting on the nest platform for a few hours. There really is no nest so far .. maybe just one or two branches sitting on the platform. DH

No activity to report during the first week of March. Two sites were used, one on the north side of Discovery lane in a clearing just past the wooded area as you drive in to CBEC and the other one about 100 yards into the adjacent woods with a clearing at about twice the distance to the platform.
