I had an Osprey the other day at Virgin Creek, actively hunting along the beach before heading back north - not sure how long it's been around because I've been out of commission for weeks. There is a nest off Ward Ave at the extreme south end. I haven't seen it carrying any nesting material, but maybe others have. Did you catch Steve Hampton's Zoom talk the other night through Peregrine Audubon? Really great talk about species affected by Climate Change and how some species are nesting earlier than normal.
