Good Morning ospreys, afternoon, storm, and sleep

YOW!

Athletic poop!

Noon and after

Overseeing nest and family; awaiting storm.

Nestoration

Storming. This is a view of the river, west of the creek and nest.

Between creek/nest and river, wind catches bamboo next to my house (and parking spot.)

Getting ready to sleep.

They are looking big she may not be able to shade them much longer, they maybe able to shade her soon!
I have never been able to watch Osprey in the wild. You have opened a window where we can watch.

Thank You

Haven't seen him in pix lately.

Mombrella can handle whatever life throws at her babies, no doubt.

Ty for sharing pix. I'd never seen Osprey previously.

Now in love with them!

What a wonderful gift from nature to watch them grow up!

Glad dad is still around. Ty!
