| March 26 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Ellen S reports: We are continuing to see and hear both male and female. They seem to be fixing up the nest and calling to each other. | ||||||
| March 31 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | N | N | |||
| Note: | Ellen S reports: I continue to see the male and female in and around the nest. Yesterday they chased away a Bald Eagle which was amazing to watch. They continue to communicate with each other. | ||||||
| April 10 | HHI Osprey Watch | 2 | Y | N | incubation | ||
| Note: | Ellen S reports: Incubation probably began in early April. This conclusion is based on the reports of 4/10 saying the male was delivering food and that only her head was visible in the nest. Since no clear observation of incubation was reported March 31 but the April 10 report seems to indicate incubation, we will make a guess that it beganbetween 3/31 and 4/10 selecting April 5 as our best guess. | ||||||
