<div dir="ltr">Often a new pair of Osprey only go through the motions of building a nest, and will not actually lay eggs until the second year; that could easily happen in this case.</div>

Elliott Porter published book of warblers at their nests. All of his pictures are with a large format camera. In one instance, I forget the species, he went very, very high in a tree, sought off the branch that the nest was on and lowered it little by little
over a number of days. This allowed him to set up and photograph the successful nesting of the bird!<br>
I’m betting on the ospreys being successful. We shall see… Please keep us posted whoever is on the scene.<br>
