Nesting Diaries
There are currently 3 nestlings, with one unhatched egg (which may no longer be viable). The chicks emerged from their shells between 5/23/22 and 5/31/22. Great views from nest cam.
Osprey pair returns to nest!
Nest cam installation completed, culminating a collaboration between the Friends of Mashpee National Wildlife Refuge, Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, one of the Refuge partners, and Comcast.
My first visit to the Waquoit Estuary Center. The propery has two healthy nest. Pictures to come.
I believe this nest has two chicks. Have estimated on D.O.B. by there size in comparison to my other nest. Everyone looks healthy but this nest is taunted regularly by other Osprey. Maybe because of the height or relationship to the other Osprey.
