Cool! I'm going to be in Northern Idaho this weekend in an area where there are TONS of Osprey. Always fun to see them hit the water and come up with fish...

I was wondering if that message went through.  And so it did. I never knew what an Osprey was until I checked out the BBC website. It is unfortunate that I learn of them via internet link. It is also, ironic that nature is only a few steps out my door and all I have to tell of it is that it's uncomfortably hot.  If perception ever served me well I bet even the wonderful natural world of suberbia is teaming with interesting life.

The picture is beautiful and may I add "paradoxic" with the perch looking so much like an electrical wire post.

Hey Alex!   Thanks man!  That is a electric pole...the nest is made on top of it.  Ontario Hydro is quite good at helping Osprey like this....really nice!


I got more pics here

 Now I am confused. Is that really what they nest on. I only mentioned it because it looked as if there was a hydropol standing in the middle of the wilderness. An odd site for a hydropol to be.

Quite well done. Now I have to go to the library to "Verify" the nessting habitat of the southeast Osprey of North America.
