Old friends!

 We now have at least two ospreys back on their nests….one on the east side and one on the west side! I have read my first band too….an 18 year old! Hope his mate returns soon. Fingers crossed. We have set our clocks based upon this pair for quite a few years….the first to return, the first to lay eggs, the first to hatch and the first to fledge.

Oh another report just came in about ospreys on another nest, so they are arriving all over the metro now!

They are right on schedule! As the annual report said, our first osprey returned last year on March 31. (This same bird!)The last week of March is the usual time if we dont have a lingering winter with frozen lakes.
Always good to see old friends…..
