I omitted Boulder because it makes me sad.
A lady and I watched it some years ago together.
Now she's gone over the Rainbow Bridge.

Its a nice cam - glad you posted it.

Shep, Linda, Thanks for posting. :)

I remember Boulder.

Hellgate and Dunrovin are my favorites since 2012.
I pray Hellgate Iris will return from her long migration and accept a new mate this year.
Dunrovin Ranch Harriet will have a good year. She lost her eggs due to late freezing weather.

Also, there are two osprey nests in Europe.
If you don't mind I'll post a link to that in May when they return.  :)

O I dont mind at all!
I did this thread cuz it seems once falcons season starts - osprey threads arent completed.  I know I am going to post EVERYTHING OSPREY here - not in a separate thread.

I watch falcon, kestrel, hawk.

I made a thread for all owls too.

Shep, I remember her - Pat, I think, and we all watched together; you called the pair Wills and Kate!  The site has great mods and a chat with lots of photos posted there, but at least the link is here if people want to see it.  That pair have not had very successful seasons the past couple of years, I hope this one is better.

Both male and female osprey back at Boulder County Open Space Nest in Colorado.  The egg in this photo is one left by geese that had started a nest here.

The female osprey tossed the goose eggs out; geese made an attempt to defend the nest, but it's osprey property  ;)

Not in the U.S., but may be of interest:

"Female osprey has completed a 'remarkable' transatlantic journey from Scotland to Barbados.

The bird of prey, which was tagged last summer in Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park in Renfrewshire, was spotted on the Caribbean island earlier this month.

The Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation said it covered 4,124 miles during its epic journey from Lochwinnoch.

And one expert said it was the first time a UK osprey had been observed in the Americas."

See the website for the rest of the story.
