Perhaps a bit later than past years…finally a morning viewing of the Osprey Chicks.
This may very well had something to do with the size of nest since the adults keep adding branches. The nest now has become quite deep.
Another thought…we did have a late spring and perhaps arrived back later than other years.
They young will soon be up on the edge of the nest madly flapping their wings preparing to fledge. Once they do fledge they do return to the nest…since this is where the adults bring the food.
The pre-fledge flapping is the most exciting time to watch the youngsters…just sayin !
