Enjoying a short float on the Ouachita River late on Mon (23 Jun), we saw a single Osprey flying upstream about 2 miles downstream of Remmel Dam.
We usually see a pair together heading upstream earlier in the Spring and downstream in the Fall. Perhaps the delay is due to the higher than normal river flows this year.
We are also seeing--and hearing--daily a pair of immature Bald Eagles with only a single mature adult tending them. Maybe that is why the Ospreys don’t hang around…
