    Osprey Nest now has a chick!!
    Osprey nest is back in action. She had 2 eggs but only one hatched. That's 2 years in a row that only one egg hatched. 3 years back she had 3 that hatched.

    Very protective of her chick (3 days old in these pic's) at the moment. When she isn't feeding him she is sitting on top of him!

    Excellent Eric, these are terrific. It will be fun to watch this only child grow up.
