LIVE FEED of OSPREY NEST

in #nature6 years ago (edited)

Live cam feed 24/7 of Osprey nest. One chick has hatched a few days ago. Jane is an inexperienced mother. Father George has been around the block a few times so should be a big help. There are 3 eggs, but this chick may be the only one to hatch.

Very beautiful majestic bird. Is it an eagle?

Osprey
The osprey or more specifically the western osprey (Pandion haliaetus) — also called sea hawk, river hawk, and fish hawk — is a diurnal, fish-eating bird of prey with a cosmopolitan range. It is a large raptor, reaching more than 60 cm (24 in) in length and 180 cm (71 in) across the wings. It is brown on the upperparts and predominantly greyish on the head and underparts.
The osprey tolerates a wide variety of habitats, nesting in any location near a body of water providing an adequate food supply.
