Arboretum Osprey Cam
We have had some conversations in the comments of our Facebook page (link on the blog page) about the Arboretum Cam, but I thought I would post here about that nest also. We initially saw a five year old male, N3, on the nest alone, but today the male from last year, Z3, has shown up with an unbanded female....which may be the same unbanded female as last year. (Z3 is now four years old.) This pair seem to have shown up together. The defensive behavior we are observing may be his reaction to N3 or other males in the area. We may see some chaos until things settle down here, as we did last year. Wishing them better luck this year!
