So true! They are fascinating. Volunteers building nests have fostered the population here. The increased quality of water in the bay is also a big spur. This year 300 osprey have been spawned in Rhode Island. From what I understand only 20% will survive the southerly migration.

@ljmanning @madamelucy Thank you! The male and female are still tending to the young until the soon to come migration south.
