I have been watching the Osprey in Delaware County, Ohio for the last 3 years. I have photographed thousands of pictures in that time. I wanted to share them as well as other photos I've taken. There also will be pictures from other photographers and information about the Osprey. Most of the pictures will be from the bottoms on Hogback Road, Brown Township, Delaware County, Ohio, USA. My wife, Elaine and I own Rabbit Quick Inc., Copy and Print Center in Downtown Delaware City. We live Northeast of Hogback Road, therefor I'm able to go by the Osprey about every other day on the way to or from work.

The Leg Bands on the Female - Platform #1


E-mail and photo from Jim Maritn

Gents:

The Female Osprey on Platform #1 is indeed banded on both legs. the Left leg is a blue band, the right leg carries an Aluminum band. It took us this long to get a good enough "shot" that made the question/answer "conclusive". This means that she is most likely the returning Female from last year.


PS: She is also the "victor" in the recent fight for the nest.


Jim.
