| Note: | Lisa P reports no activity. | ||||||
| January 20 | HHI Osprey Watch | 0 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Lisa P reports there is still no activity. NOTE: This pair returned in January last season, so there is some expectation that it will again be an early nesting pair. | ||||||
| January 25 | HHI Osprey Watch | 0 | N | N | |||
| Note: | No activity. | ||||||
| January 30 | HHI Osprey Watch | 0 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Lisa P reports: Still waiting for occupants to return. | ||||||

| Note: | Lisa P reports: 12:00 noon, Feb 2….. one mate has arrived!! Sitting on tower arm beneath the nest, calling and calling. Can’t tell if it’s Mrs or Mr. NOTE: Joanne V checked the nest at 3:30 PM same day and took attached photo. Looks like this is the female osprey. | ||||||
| February 11 | HHI Osprey Watch | 1 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Osprey was observed bringing nesting material to the nest. | ||||||
| February 20 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Lisa P reports: One bird hanging out in the nest. Can’t tell if it’s Mrs or Mr. Moving around quite a bit, so probably not sitting on eggs. Second bird just joined the nest. | ||||||

| Note: | Joanne V reports: While not the assigned monitor, I was by this nest with my camera this morning so took some pictures. When I arrived, both ospreys were in the nest. About 10 minutes later, dad (I presume) flew out of the nest and mom remained. It is not clear yet if they have mated and/or if eggs are incubating. | ||||||
| March 4 | HHI Osprey Watch | 1 | U | N | |||
| Note: | Lisa P reports: Waited 10 minutes and just as I was thinking no activity, one adult head popped up for a few seconds. Barely visible. NOTE: It is highly probably that eggs are now being incubated. The dates line up and and it is very typical for a mother osprey to stay low in the nest during incubation. March 4 will be recorded as initiation and this nest will continue to be closely monitored. (Joanne V) | ||||||
| March 10 | HHI Osprey Watch | 0 | U | N | |||
| Note: | Lisa P reports: 1:40-1:50, cannot see any movement in my nest. NOTE: It is still judged that eggs are incubating, but it is often challenging to see the mother if she is laying low in the nest. | ||||||
| March 26 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | U | N | |||
| Note: | Lisa P reports: After watching the nest for 20 minutes with no activity, suddenly both adults flew out, circled around and then 1 returned to the nest. However, cannot see the adult from this angle | ||||||
