7-26-2010 Osprey nest
The weather actually broke a bit today. It was cool in the morning (well, low 70s) and we walked instead of going to the gym at 5:30. Those days are coming to an end; it's almost too dark now. A refreshing breeze was most pleasant. After work, we took a walk down by the river and saw these birds, with white heads, on some pilings in the river, right off the new condos located close to our house. A fellow came by and told us it was a family of Ospreys and pointed out their nest on the pilings. We must have looked at it a hundred times and not seen it and had never noticed the birds either. Oblivious! They will leave soon for South America - looked like there were three or four of them. So we didn't have to go to Maine to see Ospreys!
By the way, note the sailing boats in the background - lots of them out on the river this afternoon.
