| April 21 | Kathy | 1 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | New sports lights were put in this year, so last year's nest was removed. There is a new nest in the same exact location. (Of concern is that there is a large sharp metal protrusion coming straight up out of the light fixture, which the nest is on! I hope the babies do not get impaled when they are learning how to fly later in the season!) I saw a Female osprey in this nest, and a male osprey perched across field on other light pole preening. ANOTHER NOTE: I saw another male osprey on the distal soccer field trying to build a new nest. Will have to check that one out! | ||||||
| April 27 | mferreira | 2 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | One in the nest low in the nest bowl, assumed incubating, the other sitting on nearby light post (assumed mate). | ||||||
| April 28 | Kathy | 2 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | Female in nest incubating presumably, male was perched off to side on a different light pole. Vocalizations heard. Then, he flew down to ground, gathered a stick and brought it to the nest (nest building). He stayed there next to female and arranged the new stick a few times. The nest looks much bigger this week vs last week. OF NOTE: There are two other ospreys seen flying around sports complex, I believe they are trying to build another nest - two possible locations. One is the distant soccer field (no evidence of more than a few sticks up in one of the new light posts) and the second possible nest attempt is in the little league field before you enter the main Confreda sports complex area. There is evidence of several loose sticks hanging from one of the sports light poles. I am not sure these are male and female osprey as they both look like males to me? | ||||||
| May 4 | mferreira | 2 | U | N | incubation | ||
| May 5 | Kathy | 2 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | Female in nest presumably incubating eggs; male with big fish in his talons flew over to the nest, vocalized, and then flew over to a nearby light post to process the fish/eat some for himself (before bringing some to her). The 2 other osprey nests seen at this location are coming along. One is in the distal soccer field at the end of Bend St. It appears there are 2 unique new ospreys sitting near the shabby nest being built, but not sure if any eggs are laid yet. The other new nest with 2 other unique ospreys is in the Warwick North Softball Little League field just prior to entering the Confreda Sports Complex. That nest is much bigger than last week, and I saw one osprey bringing a stick to that nest. | ||||||
| May 8 | mferreira | 1 | U | N | incubation | ||
| May 12 | Kathy | 0 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Could not see female move around in nest this week like previously. No visual of adult male around. Nest looks great, so I suspect I didn't stay long enough to see the action. | ||||||
| May 16 | mferreira | 2 | U | U | |||
| May 19 | Kathy | 1 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | Male perched in usual place on sports light tower to the side of the main nest. Two other ospreys flew by and vocalizations heard. | ||||||
| May 24 | mferreira | 0 | U | U | |||
| Note: | Nest intact but no visible osprey | ||||||
| May 26 | Tzink | 2 | Y | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | saw adults switch on nest 2 other pair -- "playing house" one in Lacrosse field and other in baseball field. Noted before. Nest present in both areas--no incubating in these. I suspect young from the past hanging out. | ||||||
| May 29 | mferreira | 1 | U | U | incubation | ||
| Note: | Best views of the Osprey in this nest on side of second parking lot, low in cup | ||||||
| June 2 | Kathy | 1 | N | 1 | feeding, young laying down | ||
| Note: | Female on the side of the nest with one young one seen being fed. (Male was perched off to side and brought fish to nest. ) I cannot see any other heads in there. | ||||||
| June 4 | mferreira | 2 | U | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | One osprey flew in with fish for the other to eat. Unclear if Osprey was eating the food itself or feeding nestlings, but no nestlings could be observed (so assuming still incubating for now) | ||||||
| June 9 | Kathy | 2 | N | Y | |||
| Note: | Both adults seen on the nest, then the male left and perched on nearby light pole. | ||||||
| June 11 | Kathy | 2 | N | U | |||
| Note: | Both on sides of nest at first, then male left to go perch on nearby light post. Female stayed and preened her feathers, stretched out wings. | ||||||
| June 15 | mferreira | 1 | U | U | |||
| Note: | Adult osprey standing on edge of nest, no visible nestlings during observation | ||||||
| June 20 | mferreira | 1 | U | U | |||
| Note: | Osprey sitting in center of nest, calling to another Osprey flying by. Not sure if calling to mate or one of the neighboring Osprey. No nestlings visible | ||||||
| June 25 | Kathy | 1 | N | U | |||
| Note: | Female seen with wings spread out over nestlings (unclear how many) to shield from very hot sun today! 93 degrees. Male not seen. | ||||||
| June 27 | mferreira | 2 | U | 2 | feeding, young standing | ||
| Note: | Feeding at least two chicks. Male sitting across the field on another pole | ||||||
| June 30 | Kathy | 1 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | Intruder flying over nest, vocalizations heard. | ||||||
| July 5 | mferreira | 2 | U | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | Male on pole across from nest with fish, female on nest with young. One nestling stood up on the edge of the nest. | ||||||
| July 7 | Kathy | 1 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | Three other adult ospreys flying around field, two fighting with each other for a position on a nearby light pole. This position is usually the breeding male’s spot. Another adult male across field with fish in talons. Never brought fish to the nest. These adults could be the ones from the other nest that is not doing well/failed? | ||||||
| July 13 | mferreira | 2 | N | 2 | feeding, young standing | ||
| Note: | Heard osprey before seeing them! Very loud today, female vocalizing on nest with young, male was across the field with food. He brought the food over to them and observed feeding, 2 young could be seen during observation. Also 3-4 other osprey flying above, male sunning and vocalizing in response to the other osprey | ||||||
| July 14 | Kathy | 1 | N | 2 | feeding, young standing | ||
| Note: | Observed adult male perched the whole time on nearby pole. Adult female mom brought huge pink fish to nest, tail flapping around. Witnessed mom feeding both young. Lots of young vocalizations. Amazing. | ||||||
| July 20 | Tzink | 2 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | 2 other osprey pair continue "to play house" at other locations in the sports fields | ||||||
| July 26 | mferreira | 2 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | One fledgling was seen on a pole—unsure if this is a third young for the nest that was not previously noted or an unrelated young bird. Unsure so I only marked the two confirmed young. Was begging. Other two on the nest also calling out, adult nearby had a fish. At one point there was the young bird and two other adults sitting on one pole, but the Osprey with the fish (presumably the parent) came through and began to chase the intruders away (not the young bird). Proceeded to chase the other multiple Osprey (there is always a lot of activity by this nest with the nearby unproductive nests) | ||||||
| July 28 | Kathy | 1 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| July 31 | Tzink | 2 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | out and flying in and out of nest | ||||||
| August 3 | mferreira | 2 | N | 2 | feeding, young standing | ||
| Note: | Adult brought a fish to one young osprey in the nest, the other fledgling had been on a pole and flew over to get the food. Observed some fighting over the food between the fledglings, the other adult was on the far field light pole | ||||||
| August 4 | Kathy | 1 | N | 2 | young standing | ||
| Note: | Adult male seen perched across field, as usual. Two other ospreys flying around field, presumably the young fledglings exercising their wings? | ||||||
