Junebug

The Osprey built a nest at the top of the light pole in the parking lot of the Deltaville Fire Station. I don't know how long they have been returning to the same pole but it's been at least 7 years. I saw one of the parents fly out the nest today and there were two 'heads' left in the nest. I would guess 2 baby Osprey in the nest.

Long Creek Trail, top end.

This nest is visible from Pleasure House Point

I spied this nest in the lake Lawson/lake Smith Natural Area. I had seen the adult ospreys earlier in the year.

This is a well-established nest. Both male and female are on the nest today.

This nest is another longstanding nest. It's on White lake. Easy to observe but it is kinda distant. This nest is occupied by two adults. 'One of my fav observation points because its surrounded by blue heron nests!

Cox High School athletic field. Platform on top of light pole. This was the second platform placed on light pole at public school in Virginia Beach about 15 years ago. Osprey have nested here every year. May 29 - This nest appears to have been abandoned.

Bayville water tank next to this platform which City of Virginia Beach mounted on light pole so Osprey would not build nest on water tank. May 29 - Female appears to be feeding a chick. Saw fuzzy head once.
