Osprey & All Things Wild Delaware County, Ohio: July 3, 2007

About Me

Name: Frank Germann

Location: Delaware County, Ohio, US

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.

July 3, 2007 - Alum Creek Osprey Banding, Awards

E-mail & photo from Jim Martin:

Fellow Naturalists and Conservationists:

Today the five Osprey youngsters along Alum Creek were banded (2 bands) by the professionals from ODNR. With press coverage, numerous photographers, and 150+ local residents attending the banding proceeded without a hitch.

A very special moment was set aside to present awards to Dick Phillips and Dick Tuttle. These plaque awards, as shown in the attached photo, were richly deserved as no-one has done more for the Osprey reintroduction program in central Ohio than these two gentlemen.

CONGRATULATIONS Gents.

Notes: There was one "unhatched egg" on platform #1. Both sets of Osprey adults returned to the nest inside 30 mins. Feeding commenced on platform #1 inside 30 mins. ODNR proceeded to the Delaware nest site to band those youngster(s).

Best Wishes,

Jim Martin.
