Osprey - Maryland / Chesapeake Bay
GCG:
Update from the Chesapeake Conservancy............................
"Mrs. Crazy Osprey Man confirmed that the female osprey we've seen over the past several days is a 'new' Audrey. Let's welcome home Audrey 3!
This isn't the first time we've had a new osprey on the nest. Audrey 2 was featured on the nest since 2010, and our current Tom is Tom 3, since 2015. For naming purposes and consistency, the birds that inhabit this nest are called Tom & Audrey.
We're looking forward to a productive & exciting season! Don't miss a single moment with the link below."

It has been now confirmed that Audrey has returned and "reunited" with Tom. They are diligently again building the nest, a stick here and a stick there. Some with the colored ribbons tied on by those who frequent this area.

Tom and Audrey are again the returnees at this site. When they arrived, they began rebuilding their nest. At the end of the every season, all that remains of the nest is removed and awaits the Osprey. The nest appears to be complete and Audrey should begin to lay her eggs soon.
GCG:
Last year the eggs didn't hatch. They replaced the eggs with two fosters that thrived and fledged.

Oh, that's so sad! I just saw the one remaining little chick. Hope he/she's safe!
Didn't eagles raid this nest last year or the year before? Seems I heard somewhere that there are a number of eagles' nests in the area. I love both eagles and ospreys. Wish they didn't have to eat each other. ::)
