An Osprey Nest on Kiawah

While we were on Kiawah in mid March, Ospreys seemed to be right in the middle of claiming and defending territories, often disputing claim to nest sites. So they were vocal and active, and we saw and heard them often.

This is one of five Osprey nests we saw, all easily visible from trails, bike paths or a road. This particular nest was in an area not far from a large home under construction, surrounded by woods and marsh, and the Osprey pair were coming and going, working on their nest despite a great deal of construction noise.
