Watching the male working on the nest can be fascinating. He would disapear and you could see him diving to the ground to get sticks to bring back. Sometimes he would discard the stick and not retieve it from below the nest, almost as if it did not fit as he expected. He would also always approach the nest from the downwind side, so his approach could be slower.
Since the beginning of April 2011 we have been watching and documenting a family of Osprey in Amherstview, ON. This photo blog will be a retrospective to track their progress.
