Nesting Diaries

I saw one osprey in the nest. Many osprey flying overhead, but not sure who belongs to that nest or the nearby nest.

07/29/2023 by A Bryant
When I arrived, I saw both parents and two chicks in or near the nest. A bit later, all four were flying around.

07/01/2023 by A Bryant
Camped out there for at least two hours and spotted only two little heads next to a parent.

07/31/2022 by A Bryant
On July 4, I'm pretty sure a photo I took shows triplets (two heads and one tail.) I returned yesterday and all were flying! I never saw them all together, so no confirmation as to how many chicks.

06/24/2022 by A Bryant
I spotted two chicks in the nest today!

06/18/2022 by A Bryant
One baby briefly popped his head up!

05/15/2022 by A Bryant
Mom and Dad are either on the nest or sticking close by.

04/02/2022 by A Bryant
Both birds were busy adding to the nest!

03/27/2022 by lost_bird
The pair was not there last Wed. but was there on Fri. so estimating arrival last Thursday.

04/23/2021 by lost_bird
I've seen interlopers try to barge in on a nest but don't know if they can take over. Something to research! Is the resident female incubating yet?

04/11/2021 by LAU
I see a lot of extra birds about the two nests. Can another bird take over a nest?

04/09/2021 by lost_bird
FYI the nest location on the map was adjusted slightly to match its actual location on Google Maps.

04/04/2021 by LAU
I witnessed the pair getting frisky. Nest seems stable. There seems to be a third bird flying around hassling them

04/02/2021 by LAU
This nest is directly behind the first one about 50' apart. I saw one bird building the nest

AUGUST 28, 2022: No birds in the nest, but a few osprey flying around or chirping in the trees. Pretty sure the parents are gone. SEPTEMBER 17, 2022: Only one osprey chick observed in the area, and he was definitely from the other nest closest to Sandwich Road.
