And then there was only one egg left? After the first egg got kicked out of the bowl on July 6 and got covered by nest material, yesterday, an egg cracked. Steve was moving the empty shell around. The remaining egg will face its fate soon as well. It is only a question of days.

Prayers for this nest and couple next season... breaks my heart what they go through.  :'(  Shep, I guess it's just us posting... would like to keep it active and hopefully post good news this year.

Has #2 hatched?  Hard to tell
One looks like his butt is still in the egg
Has this pair ever nested before?  Half a shell still in nest.
Strong wind arose, hatchling sought shelter, parent kept eating

Osprey often called the fish eagle.
They are AWESOME flyers - straight up, sideways, backward!
