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.

Which Female Nest 1 ????



Dick Tuttle and I were at Hogback Road about 8 am this Monday morning.

It is now unsure which female has control of Nest #1!!!
The 1st pick shows a band on the left, she was the female there this Monday morn. The female that the male first meet when retuning to Hogback Road had no bands. We know that there was a big fight with 2 females, as the great photos Jim Martin took 4/1/07.

There may well be 3 different females vie-ing for nest #1!
Dick Tuttle hopes a new male will show up and claim one of the two losing females and the empty nest #3.

The geese still claim nest #2.

Nest #4 pair seem to be OK.

We also had a muskrat come up to the road to greet us.
