Ozzie and Harriet have produced at least one nestling and probably more that I haven’t been able to see yet. Here’s an extreme enlargement of the young, red-eyed raptor that popped up very briefly from under Harriet’s right wing Wednesday (lower left).

As usual, we’ve named this first born/seen bird David for descriptive convenience. Harriet and David seem to be healthy and contented.

Ozzie also seems healthy and contented; he spends a lot of time flying and perching near the nest and visits it frequently, albeit briefly.

Here are images of him rising handsomely from the nest yesterday:
