Osprey Nest

Osprey guarding the next

We've been watching two busy birds across the channel for a couple of days. Yesterday evening, one of them seemed to have a fish in its mouth as it approached the tree where the other was roosting.

Today, one bird spent almost the entire day perched high above the water, while the other periodically exited what seemed to be a large nest below. Finally we realized the birds were osprey, and they must have chicks in the nest.

Exciting days ahead!
