All OspreyWatch Nests

Nest constructed on top of four lights. Age of the nest uncertain.

Nesting platform on wooden pole. This platform was placed in 2011 when a nest on a power pole approximately 40 m to the SE was destroyed during a road widening on Ardice.

Nest platform on extra pole added by electric company.

Nest has been there for years. Ospreys can often be seen in the area.

This is a platform installed by the AEP. I watched the nest last year and 2 successfully fledge. It was an awesome nest to watch! I am anxiously awaiting their arrival this year. They arrived Mar. 26, 2011. So far, the only activity at the nest is a Red Tail Hawk has robbed all the sticks!

Platform nest within view of the parking lot

Difficult to see due to height - usually can only see fresh 'white wash' on rock face. Appears to have been used for about past 10+ years

Several Nests on several platforms. Used by birds for past 3+ years

3/10/2012 Observed the beginnings of a new nest in dead pine. One mature Osprey was observed delivering new branches/twigs to the nest, and two mature Osprey were observed on perches just below the nest less than an hour later. This site is very close to a previous nest site that was lost during a hurricane in 2011.
