3/27/23 Re-checked to see if they were back, today the Nest has/is being re-constructed. Both Male & Female Present. Very vocal today.

As of 3/17/23 there is No nest in the Cell Tower. I am aware that some area Nests located in Cell Towers were cleared this winter. There is also a Nest located on Anson Road in the Cell Tower (at the end, on the right going toward the Church); however while the nest is still partially there no one was in that one today, either. Will try to check back. I did observe Osprey flying in the area.

Not sure what is going on at this nest. Do not seem to be incubating. Occasionally see two Osprey on the cell tower. Only one today and it is calling loudly. - Photo

June 13 - One chick in this nest about 3 to 4 weeks old. This nest atop a cell tower is about 2 miles from Oceana Naval Air Station and right in the landing path for US Navy jets.
