Hello,
Quick msg to show some pix from my trip to Belvoir yesterday.
Nice day, bit windy, but temp's in the 50's.
Lots of osprey and one immature bald eagle. Very few water fowl, but lots of gulls.
Did see a disaster ... one of the osprey nests had been blown off its pole. Poor birds looked shook up. This happened about 3 years ago, but later in the season to this same nest. At that time the birds were trying to fledge, but I did not see any on the ground. Several nests were down, but I don't remember how many.
I will try to include a pix of the guys in the nest area top of the pole and the nest on the ground.
Will include a new nest, an osprey and an immature bald eagle riding the winds.
Nejoy your day.
Ciao
Dick
