I was happy to see an Osprey couple occupy the nest for the 2024 breeding season. Female is on the left sitting lower in the nest. They arrived back approximately 5 days ago.

Another winner, Debra. I find the great thing about Osprey nests, they are usually out in the open and easy to spot. We have a nesting pair of Bald Eagles in the are, but the nest they used for many years fell down. We now have no idea where the nest is.

Lovable shot Debra. Agree all the way with Heather. Your doing great with that 600mm, showing a nice tenderness between those two. What's next.

Great shot Debra, and what a handsome looking pair they are. You got some great detail on their beautiful markings and they stand out beautifully against the clear sky.
