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 Platform Cleaning and Sign Maintenance





E-mail and 2 photos from Jim Marin
One photo from Frank Germann

Hello Fellow Naturalists & Conservationists:

Today, Sept. 25, 2007, Dick Phillips and Dick Tuttle took advantage of the largely drawn-down Alum Creek Reservoir. Alum Creek was but a trickle flowing into the reservoir. Frank Germann and I were there to record the day's activities.

Three of the four Osprey Platforms along Hogback Road required minor alignments and cleaning. The nests were removed (to keep the Canadian Geese from a hostile take over) and prepared for next season's breeding season.

In contrast to last February's weather, which was very cold & windy, today's work was much more enjoyable and was completed in about 1 and a quarter hours.

Best Wishes, Jim Martin
