May 19 11763 Jim O 1 N N

Note: One adult on the nest low in incubation posture. Checked nest at begining and end of this 70 minute session.
May 19 13109 Jim O 1 N N
Note: Just learned of this nest today. One adult present; nest is quite large and deep. Hard to see if the bird was incubating so I left it as a NO. A second osprey flew into the area carrying a lot of marsh grass but didn't go to the nest.
June 12 11758 Jim O 1 U U
Note: Female present; standing in nest, preening and looking down into the nest. Possible juveniles but none sighted.
June 12 11763 Jim O 0 N N

June 19 11763 Jim O 1 N N
Note: One adult perched on the branch. However, there is actually less nesting material on the branch than there was last week. I think we can call this as unsuccessful; probably a young bird just doing housekeeping early in the season.
