Another very grey wet day here today, so here is another photo taken from the Gan Gan Lookout.
These are the communication towers on the top of Gan Gan.
The shortest of these towers has an osprey nest on the top of it. The pair of ospreys have been nesting here for a few years. At the moment they are not at home, but no doubt will return again.
The nest was rather battered and beaten during a storm here a few weeks ago, so will need a bit of renovation before they pair of birds can make this their home again.
@gigiflower@gilbertwood@hermann They are necessary. Apart from the telephone and television transmitters I think there are also police, fire, ambulance and possibly taxis plus others. I am sure somebody can help me out with others that are shown here.
@terryliv Strangely enough I did get good reception up there, ha ha. Unfortunately, we are a bit limited where I live for mobile phone reception. Not far from Gan Gan but our house is in a dip just in amongst a clump of trees and mobile reception is limited to one part of our house.
Cool towers and nice to think about the ospreys having a home. On Beaver Island, we have a pair that's been returning every summer, and they hang out and nest at the top of a similar (but not as filled) tower.
Sorry😊
