Osprey & All Things Wild Delaware County, Ohio: Osprey Status: Responses Regarding Protection Policy

About Me

Name: Frank Germann

Location: Delaware County, Ohio, United States

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.

Osprey Status: Responses Regarding Protection Policy

E-mail & photo from Jim Martin:

Hi All:

I received responses from ODNR's Management/staff Dave Sherman and Donna Daniel regarding my concern about "removing" the Osprey from their current protection status in Ohio. Recall the "Poster Child Photo" message of July 28, 2007. Thank you for your responses Donna & Dave.

Here is Mr. Sherman's response:

"Jim: Just wanted to let you know that I did submit the paperwork to get the osprey switched from state endangered to state threatened, but it will still be protected.

Thanks,

Sherm"

Mrs. Daniel's response was similar stating that the Osprey would continue to have protective status under the "Migratory Bird" regulations. Donna also stated that having their status changed was a good indication that the reintroduction program is working well.

The attached photo is of two youngsters from Platform #4 sitting on Platform #3.

Best Wishes,

Jim Martin.
