New Osprey Pair at Delaware Lake




This Tuesday AM I went to Leonrdsberg Rd. and Horseshoe Rd. to check out the 4 osprey seen there last Friday. As Dick Tuttle observed there was a pair on the cell tower.
I found one on the tower about 8 AM, and one in the swamp/woods on the north side eating a fish in a tree.
Over the next 45 minutes they were both adding sticks and mud to the top of the tower. It looks like they are there to stay, will know more within the next few days.
While walking around I also saw three hawks, lots of black birds, sparrows, maybe a mocking bird, a pair of geese with new born, two of the brightest blue jays I've ever seen and a pair of yellow finches so close I could reach out and touch them, (as a mater of fact they were so close my camera would not focus that close). And before I left a weasel crossed the road. I am defiantly going back again with lots of fresh batteries.
If you observe and or have photos to share, please be sure to e-mail to frank@rabbitquick.com and I will post.
