| Note: | Paul P reports: This nest is still visible and in good shape. No osprey activity as yet. | ||||||

| Note: | Paul P reports: I am happy to report that first thing this morning I saw one of the Osprey (m) in the nest tree. The attached photo is of this Osprey. Just about an hour ago I saw this Osprey in the nest tree and another different Osprey flying around the nest area. | ||||||
| February 23 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Paul P reports: I saw both ospreys on the nest on 2/23. One was sitting on or near the nest and the other came in with nest building materials. Then they worked it into the nest. | ||||||
| March 10 | HHI Osprey Watch | 1 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Paul P reports: On approximately March 10th one of the nesting pair was observed bringing nest building materials to the nest. The other osprey was not seen. | ||||||
| March 21 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Paul P reports: March 21st one osprey was observed next to the nest and the other (female) was observed in the nest but low and very inconspicuous. Can I assume that they have mated and the female is sitting on eggs? NOTE: The timeline is good for possible incubation. We will wait at least another week before declaring eggs laid. | ||||||
| April 4 | HHI Osprey Watch | 1 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | Paul P reports: Yesterday, after over a week of not seeing either of the osprey on or near the nest I can now confirm that the female osprey is on the nest and probably incubating her eggs! I could hear the osprey but could not see either of them near the nest. I stood around the nest tree and finally saw the female osprey stand and fluff up her wings and then re-settle in the nest. No photos but I definitely saw her on the nest. At this time I believe that she may have been on the nest with her egg(s) for at least the past week. I am basing this on the fact that I had not seen either of the osprey in the nest tree in over a week. My thought is she was on the nest with her eggs and the male was just away and I wasn't around when he was at the nest. Incubation is estimated to have begun on 3/27/26 | ||||||
