Osprey Update: May 24
Wow! All 3 eggs hatched. It was a rainy Memorial Day weekend, but on May 24th the 3rd egg hatched and the parents kept the new nestlings warm and dry and well fed. If you squint just right you can discern the 3 nestlings - the red lines help.
Osprey Update: May 23
Yippee! A second osprey egg has been pipped open, and now there are 2. The blue lines lead to the 2 osprey nestlings, and the red line is pointed at the 3rd egg.
