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.

Fly, Fly, Little Osprey, Fly!!!



Both youngsters Fledge from nest #1!!!

Friday at 5:25 PM, 1 of the 2 youngsters was flying from nest #1 on Hogback Road! I left work early hoping to see a fledge. Jim Martin, Dick Tuttle and a few other observers have spent a lot of time watching nest #1 since last Saturday, the fledge day had been calculated to be Monday July 23.

The second youngster fledged Saturday AM, while the Delaware Preservation Parks was having it Osprey Observation Program. (I showed up late, I had to wait till latter to watch the young one fly). Jim Martin will have more details and photos latter.
