Ozzie and Harriet appear well. He continues to be attentive, she seems to be feeding young at the bottom of her deep nest, and I’m still going crazy with frustration! I haven’t seen any nestlings. It seems that I should have spotted at least one little red-eyed osprey trying to peer out of the nest by now. Let’s continue to hope that nothing is awry.
In any case, the parents seem to be in magnificent shape. Above, you see Ozzie on Thursday, June 24, circling the nest with Harriet’s breakfast. (It looks to me like he’s about to serve an Atlantic halibut without its head, which Ozzie usually eats before serving.)
Below, you see Harriet taking one of her short breaks yesterday, literally stretching her wings.
