Yesterday was kind of a banner day at the old Osprey Whisperer’s pop stand. Interesting developments at both of my favorite nests.
Big Momma seems to have a partner (though I’m not at all sure it’s the guy she was hanging out with last year). Still, he’s trying to do his part.
I’m not sure she’s all that impressed:
And the female who’s hanging out down the road on the impossible tree also seems to have a boyfriend. They’re both soaring through the trees as if they’re gathering nesting materials. But I’m not sure they’re building a nest THERE. Maybe they’re just using it as an observation post.
