Nesting Diaries

did not see a nest this season, so many more people on kayaks able to touch the low platform in the the water, would make it difficult for ospreys to settle on nest

nest rebuilt, one incubating one standing on structure

nest fell apart after May 1st 2021 wind storm, pair remains at nest site but nest is hanging through the wood structure, this nesting pair gets harassment from numerous kayakers and paddleboarders coming from the local kayak rental as well as locals, I know the ospreys have been productive in years past but not sure just how productive..
