Osprey Nest 6.jpg

Preparing to mate. The male was a prolific lover, as they mated repeatedly at least 12-15 times a day (maybe more). The female stayed on the nest 98% of the time, and would only leave when her mate would deliver a meal to eat. She would usually take the delivered fish just across the stream to eat, although she did eat a bit while on the nest on one occasion.
