Osprey News Corner
As of April 28th, we have two eggs in the nest!!!
The first egg of the season was laid on April 25th and the second egg was laid on April 27th.
Osprey lay 1-4 eggs per brood and only have one brood per season, so more eggs are expected over the coming days. Eggs incubate for 36-42 days before they hatch – so the first chick could hatch as early as Memorial Day!
The nest cam can be found below and at https://www.seasideosprey.org
Good news! The female allowed me to take a few screen captures yesterday afternoon and I have confirmed that she has a leg band on her right leg! While the male does not appear to be Bob, based on the confirmation of the leg band and her markings, we can confirm the female is Betty!
