| February 21 | 7307 | Dave Gibson | 1 | N | N | ||
| Note: | First Osprey of the season. A female and definitely a returning bird. She had bands on both legs. Initially on nest, then later at around 11 a.m. with a headless fish (and Fish Crow!) on the neighboring tower. On 3/2 I observed a second Osprey—a male without bands and with a clear chest. That bird delivered nesting material. | ||||||
| March 2 | 7307 | Dave Gibson | 2 | N | N | ||
| Note: | I observed both male and female @ the nest. The male added nesting material, then later caught a fish and took it to the nearby light pole, where it was surrounded by Fish Crows. | ||||||
| March 8 | 7492 | Dave Gibson | 2 | N | N | ||
| Note: | When I arrived, the pair was side by side on the platform. A bit later, I observed them copulate. | ||||||

| Note: | I observed both male and female adding nesting material. No sign of eggs yet. | ||||||

| Note: | Unsure about eggs or anything else | ||||||
| April 5 | 6994 | Dave Gibson | 1 | N | N | young standing | |
| Note: | See photo. As seen through the Buckeye Partners Terminal pier. Will follow. | ||||||
| April 11 | 12783 | Dave Gibson | 2 | N | N | ||
| Note: | No idea if there are eggs or not, but the presence of eggs is unlikely. There doesn't appear to be enough nesting material for the female to lay and incubate eggs. | ||||||
OspreyWatch is managed by The Center for Conservation Biology. The project was developed in an attempt to bring together a global community of observers to collect information for the common good. The project is unfunded and, as such, has been created and managed by unpaid staff and volunteers. Please help support the dedicated individuals who maintain the project.
