About a month ago I posted some pictures of an Osprey nest for Sky Watch Friday. The Osprey's head peeking over the edge was the only indication that there was an actual bird in the nest. Last Sunday we drove by again, and I'm happy and excited to announce that the Ospreys have become devoted parents to, not one, but two chicks (we saw only two). I wanted very much to share this special event with all of you, and I hope you will enjoy the photos of this amazing raptor.
The Osprey is found worldwide, on every continent except Antarctica.
