Beautiful and peaceful water, but you know my obsession with birds – I loved the Osprey!

I wass really lucky to catch the Osprey on its nest. Normally as you wander by they take off!

Maybe she was protecting the nest. And what an interesting nest it is!

I suspect she was. If you think about it, they carry those sticks over a 1/2 mile to bring them to the nest.

Too bad the system would not allow comments on your photos.
They were all great. What a beautiful day to be out on the water!
I love seeing ospreys especially on their nests. I have only seen
this on Nat Geo, lucky you to see it live.

Loved the Mama Osprey photo, it was great. 🙂

I shared that one (taken with my good camera, and really stripped down so I could upload it). It is really rare to catch them on a nest, mostly they just fly away.
They are struggling (except on the bay) because their traditional nesting areas are well, becoming beaches and beachfront homes. The buoy system is a great adaptation for the Osprey to use as a nest!
