Description
2022 update: The pair has built a NEW nest nearby, but now it is between 2 South Shore and the bridge. BACKGROUND ON THIS NEST LOCATION: The nest was originally behind the home on 17 South Shore Place. The tree was removed in March 2021 but the property owners had it moved to a nearby tree. By late March, the osprey built a new nest in the general area. This new nest is located at 3 South Shore Drive (empty lot), in the middle of the border line with 1 South Shore Drive
