Date Watcher Adults Eggs Young Observations Photo Edit
June 8 HHI Osprey Watch 2 N N
Note: Paul L reports: This nest is in a pine at 5 Heritage Road. Adult osprey have been seen here. We do not have info on whether or not there are eggs, incubation, etc. NOTE: This nest has limited data because it was just reported to the project on June 8th.
June 9 HHI Osprey Watch 2 N 2 young standing
Note: Paul L reports: I observed the nest on and off for over two hours today between 1-3pm and observed a female in the nest occasionally poking her head out in view and spreading her wings. The male partner was observed in foraging flight nearby and returned to the nest 30 minutes later carrying a fish in his talon which he dropped off at the nest. I was not able to observe any nestlings with my binoculars but I took a live Photo of the nest (attached) that when viewed in expanded live mode appears to show 2-3 small heads bobbing in the nest. I believe those to be nestlings. NOTE: When zooming on the nest, it appears there are 2 or 3 little visible heads which would indicate they are probably round 3- 4 weeks old. While there may be 3, only 2 have been recorded until we can confirm. Based on seeing the heads of the young and that they do not appear to be fuzzy/light colored, we will guess that hatching took place around May 15th. Again, this is a new nest and this is the best guess based on the limited data.
