| June 29 | ospreychick | 1 | N | N | |||
| Note: | I biked over to the cranberry bog and stood almost under the nest. The day before I couldn't see the nest from my kayak so I was worried that something had happened to it. The female was in the nest and was not happy to have me so close. She chirped loudly but then after about 5 minutes she flew off the nest. No chicks were visible. | ||||||
| July 14 | ospreychick | 1 | N | N | |||
| Note: | There is always alot of chirping going on at this nest. Today I went into the bog so I was closser than usual becaue I hadn't been able to spot the nest from the Riverside a couple of days before. The adult wasn't glad to see me and chirped loudly but flew off next. I'm not sure if there are chicks in this nest or not.. | ||||||
