The Ospreys have been back for a few weeks. There is a lot of pressure on nest sites due to the increase in Osprey population. We will refurbish the current nest site and establish another one next year with a neighbor.
This nest is high in a tree at the edge of the marsh. Could have issues. I mow this section much to the dismay of the current tenet.

It was windy yesterday when I took my dog for a ride/walk. One of the pair in the nest just hovered over me. Wing form is amazing to me. The Osprey is not moving forward:
