Osprey Family, Out on a Limb! by rickster549

Osprey Family, Out on a Limb!

Well, the baby's are out of the nest totally, or at least for short periods of time. The one on the right, was actually off in another tree when I got there, but soon flew back to the nesting tree. The two outer baby's then sat there screeching waiting for mom. She finally arrived with a fish. Was surprised to watch mom sit there and eat most of the fish before she even looked at either of the two baby's. But finally, she had had enough and started tearing fish pieces off and feeding it to the one on the right. I watched until they were finished and mom moved out further on the limb. Was surprised that she never fed the one on the left a single bite. That one was continuing to screech the whole time she was feeding the other one. Hope she went out and got another fish. :-(
What interesting observations you've been able to catch in watching these babies grow. Great picture of the family.
