Our Winter Waterfowl

Come home, area Osprey! My first sighting was on March 5th of a returning Osprey to the well-established nest along the Rt 50/301 corridor thru Grasonville. Although we receive area Osprey visitors to our platform as a perch and sightings were made on a couple stick-laying attempts, none have taken possession of it as their own home this season. Fingers crossed for 2014!

Female arrived March 13
Male arrived March 14
This pair seemed to appear to be Olivia & Oliver but after a couple days of visiting our platform, they moved to a new platform at Osprey Point in Marshy Creek. Since then, no activity has occurred on ours except for an occasional visitor. Maybe next season!!
