The Osprey pair are settling in and continually adding to their nest. It is mid-June now, and guess who is starting to sit on eggs? They have been actively breeding for the past few days. I see the female sitting in the nest more often now instead of perching on the edge of the box. The male is now always close by. If he isn't on the perch or the edge of the box, he is in the trees nearby.
Isn't this awfully late for them trying to raise a family? Up to now, I've just been assuming that they are newly bonded and playing house. Looks like it is getting more serious. They are also more vocal, constantly calling to each other.
What should I make of all of this?
