All OspreyWatch Nests

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.

Smaller nest on a Topped off Douglas Fir snag

Very large new nest in Redwood tree.

Large nest on top of cell tower cage.

This tower site has been used for at least two years. Today we observed one osprey making multiple trips to what remains of last year's nest with restoration branches.
