Even in the Bird World there seems to be affectionate moments…or just the results from a bust of shots with one frame that gives that impression.

Quick trip to the summer place in Gimli to check on things but not without checking on the Osprey first. Finally the first view of one of two chicks at one of the locations.

Each year the adults continue to add twigs and branches and the nest has now become quite large and deep. This would account for not seeing the white heads of the chicks much sooner.

The chicks are still at the awkward stage as they attempt to reach the rim of the nest.

This stage will soon pass as they grow quickly.

Osprey will sit for the longest time and you just never know when they will decide it’s time to leave…perhaps he was off for a meal ?
