This afternoon (25 March) about 4:45pm as I walked north past Union Field in
Cass Park, I saw a pair of Ospreys flying around overhead, close together and
quietly. The male carried a small fish. At one point the female briefly alit on
the nest on the platform atop one of the poles for floodlight
Around 4:30 today, there was one osprey occupying the nest north of
Hangar Theatre, and another osprey occupying the nest at Union Fields.
I was coming back from FLNF Parmenter Road trailheads where I heard
the squeal of a Broad-winged Hawk, followed by a few squeaks that
Merlin identified as Harr
A pair of Fish Crows also seems to have taken up residence on the Osprey nest
pole at the west side of Stewart Park, next to Fall Creek. It will be
interesting to see what happens once the Osprey pair arrives! I did see one
Osprey along the creek this morning, but none at the nest sites yet.
