What spectacular pictures, Doug! I watch several osprey nests on cams, but this adds a whole other dimension! Thank you!

Hi Judy * Thanks for your kind comments.
I'm happy to be able to add a different perspective.
It is a lot of fun watching this family.

I returned to the nest in the evening.

The fledgling was hanging around the nest, vocalizing, and waiting for Pa to deliver dinner.

Pa is on the nest for less than a minute, He flies off and disappears downstream.
