A few quick updates....for those concerned about the chicks in the tilted box that our friend Ken stabilized two weeks ago.....they have all fledged!!!!!! Woo hoo! They are still returning to the nest but are no longer in danger of ending up on the ground. We will replace the box this fall.
And for those concerned about the leaning tower of Ospreys.....Our friend Ken said he has access to some used 40 foot poles and will save us a few! Another Woo Hoo! We will investigate the situation, after the birds are more independent, to see if that ground is a suitable spot to set a pole. He also said he has a friend who can save us some lumber for new Nestboxes. So we are pooling our efforts to make some safer homes for our osprey friends. It restores my faith in humanity when people come together to help these birds. For some reason I cannot access my photos of these nests on this page but photos are available on our Facebook page! You may be able to go there and look, even if you are not a member of Facebook.
