October 4……sigh.

 I believe our osprey season in the Twin Cities area has come to an end. Our last chick seems to have departed yesterday and the area was so quiet today. So now I officially have empty nest syndrome…..sigh. I enjoyed my final visits with her.

And now, all that data……all that paperwork!

Wishing all our osprey friends safe passage to their wintering grounds….oh how we will miss you.

October 3……still here!

 October 3, leaves are falling and the late fledging chick is still here! I watched her for over 90 minutes today, hoping dad would show up but he didnt. I am sure he is still around tho…..we are in for a big change in weather on wednesdayWednesday, with winds shifting to be from the N so that may escort our lingering friends on their way south. Sure was fun to hang out with her today!
