Male osprey (and traffic cone) seen in nest.

12/05/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
The nest appears to be in even better condition despite the traffic cone which is still on the light pole as well. 1 osprey was seen on the tree at the end of the courts 100m away and there was a male on Tennis Nest #1.

12/01/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
The nest was remade! It appears to be fully formed but the court owners might be trying to stop them from nesting on the light poles because there is a traffic cone with wires stuck into it also on top of the light post. 3 osprey were seen very close to the nest but none were in it. 2 Females 1 Male.

11/14/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
1 male osprey was observed on the light pole directly next to where the nest used to be. There are still no signs of nesting.

11/07/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
1 female osprey was observed on the lightpole where the nest used to be. There was not any evidence of nesting even though the osprey was present.

10/23/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
Still no signs of nest. 3 osprey flew over the courts while I was observing. 2 landed about 50 -100 m away on the tree at the far end of courts and on the osprey tower.

10/17/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
1 male osprey was seen on the other nearby nest tower but none were observed where this nest was and there are no signs that it is being rebuilt.

10/10/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
No sign of a nest. Other than the osprey perched on nest #2 another osprey was observed on a tree past the end of the courts 100m away.

10/02/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
There is still no nest on the light post. 1 osprey was seen on a light pole on the other courts across from where the nest was about 100m away.

09/25/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
Same as 9/18/2014 update: no nest but an osprey perched on the same tree about 100 m away.

09/18/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
Still no signs of a nest but one female observed perched on a tree at the far end of the courts.

09/13/2014 by LawrenceEckerd
