April 10 | 7126 | baygirl | 2 | 1 | N | incubation | |
Note: | Female incubating single egg, male delivers large white plastic bag, it is over the egg at some points as female wrestles with it, super dangerous to have it over the egg for incubating , hopefully it blows off nest soon | ||||||

April 11 | 6352 | baygirl | 1 | N | N | ||
Note: | Just 1 hunkered down in nest during heavy rain, will hope to see the senior banded male this season , this platform is now close to a new community dock built long after this nest was built, and there’s dogs and human activity too close for the ospreys comfort, ironically the new community name is Osprey Watch. | ||||||
April 11 | 6352 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | Just saw second bird lower in his fave tree due to heavy rain, can not see band but hopeful! | ||||||
April 11 | 7126 | baygirl | 1 | 2 | N | ||
Note: | 9 pm, Female gets off eggs in heavy rain, flies to nest perch, which she does at night, but eggs are rained on and uncovered until 9:55 pm when the plastic bag blew over the 2 eggs, covering them completely, will be interesting to see how this plays out this season , this is the new females second season to incubate, she did not tend well to 2 of 3 eggs in 2024 and fledged just 1. | ||||||

April 14 | 8049 | baygirl | 2 | U | N | incubation | |
Note: | I kept seeing just the male during past few pass bys the nest, so I took a different, much farther view, and saw the females white head! She was so hidden in the large nest, and there are many sparrows nesting also | ||||||
April 14 | 6085 | baygirl | 1 | N | N | ||

Note: | Appears to be a female visiting nest in high wind, darker necklace than the male from prior visits but similar head marking..? She didn’t linger long | ||||||
April 16 | 4463 | baygirl | 1 | N | N | ||
Note: | Same female osprey as yesterday, in nest for an hour, she flew up towards another bird a few times but only a shadow is seen, could be another osprey or could be vulture, but she was calling to others | ||||||
April 16 | 8097 | baygirl | 0 | N | N | ||
Note: | Nest down sometime since yesterday, have had heavy rains off and on last week and very high winds past 2 days , no sign of snag tree or birds this evening | ||||||
April 17 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | Same male and female today, very early copulation was rebuffed then male gone for hours, second female has been tussling with prior female, at 1:15 the male attempted copulation of original female and was accepted, lots of heavy equipment noise in addition to the pharma factory next door, the equipment activity is flushing the female, so fr no nest material brought to nest and no fish gifting but the pair looks promising, this may be a young inexperienced male | ||||||
April 19 | 8012 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | 2 in built up nest | ||||||

April 20 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | Male has started to bring in pine branches and just now 10:05 he brought a large headless fish for the female. She took it away to eat, was back at 10:30. More copulation attempts. Intruder has not returned. I’m calling this a bonded pair. | ||||||

April 21 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | first fish delivery this morning the male didn’t actually deliver, he ate himself while female asked for it, hr later he delivered a partial fish for female , some tussling with interloper lots of attempted copulation, 1 piece of fluff delivered , second partial fish delivered to female at 2:19. Very little nest material has been brought by male, I will guess he is a first time “ mate” and expect a rough season for this pair, hope to be pleasantly surprised! This site may be a huge challenge for a new inexperienced pair. The location is challenging due to proximity for park visitors and all day maintenance vehicles,. The site is very loud in general due to the pharmaceutical factory next door. For new osprey observers this nest cam location and osprey behavior is a master class. | ||||||

Note: | Observed switch out on eggs | ||||||
April 23 | 8012 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | Some CANG activity around the nest , hopefully geese will not take this second platform in the Pine Bay community marsh, a resident feeds the geese there and sadly they now take pine bay 1 platform each season | ||||||

Note: | New platform placed in water near this platform , barge left at new platform, male from this nest perched on new platform, female incubating , concerned about overcrowding and fighting should a new pair claim the newly placed platform in this busy waterway! | ||||||
April 25 | 6005 | baygirl | 2 | Y | N | ||
Note: | At 3:15 pm the female was higher in nest, not deep, when I checked later with my boat the male was in his favored tree and female was from nest and perched on guard perch across the creek, nest abandoned , will recheck tmr to confirm inc or fail | ||||||

April 27 | 6007 | baygirl | 2 | U | N | ||
Note: | My options on check nest limit what I’m seeing , how can I know if there are eggs as I’m not permitted to approach a nest, however both ospreys on nest today, one was either eating or feeding a nestling, vantage point was not ideal, still need to confirm if nesting failed or perhaps nestlings though it’s quite early… | ||||||

April 28 | 6402 | baygirl | 2 | U | N | incubation | |
Note: | Male and female switched out incubation duties | ||||||
April 29 | 6235 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||
Note: | No signs of incubation, some human disturbance as there’s a float dock that washed up in the marsh last year, it’s very close to the platform, and was not removed so now part of the landscape, it attracts people to stand on it to look at ospreys and they are not settling down, same issue last year, caused very late nesting with female abandoning chick at 4 weeks, it did not survive | ||||||
April 29 | 7061 | baygirl | 2 | N | N | ||

May 4 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | 1 | N | incubation | |
Note: | First egg laid approx 5:52 pm this evening , not much nest material has been added since we placed starter nest material, and very sparse nest bowl, I believe male is inexperienced. This could be a wild ride! | ||||||
May 5 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | 1 | N | incubation | |
Note: | Male discovers egg for first time, tries to cover it a few times, eventually attempts to incubate | ||||||
May 5 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | 1 | N | incubation | |
Note: | Make brought first fish of the day at 5:25 this evening, male has not provided much nest material or fish and seems confused by the egg although he has attempted to incubate today | ||||||

May 6 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | 1 | N | incubation | |
Note: | Things have quieted down , male has incubated and brought in whole fish at 4 pm | ||||||
May 6 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | 1 | N | incubation | |
Note: | Notes from today, interloping female stood over the egg and postured as if she would brood, but she of course did not, have never before seen a female permitted to do that, I believe the female on nest was so hungry and was eating so she ignored the interloper, male did not discourage, later the female charged the interloper and fighting ensued for hours, I am surprised egg not damaged | ||||||
May 7 | 4463 | baygirl | 2 | 2 | N | incubation | |
Note: | Second egg laid approx 1:13 pm , 2 fish deliveries thus far today, male has been incubating, much calmer at nest today, so far… | ||||||

Note: | Female did not incubate again overnight, incubation is very sporadic with eggs left Unattended often, male visits sporadically , not providing adequate fish so female is fishing and eggs are usually exposed, crow was on nest yesterday , red winged blackbirds attacked otherwise it would have gotten an egg again like last season, quite a saga at this nest | ||||||
