I have just had a look at Sanibel cam and I see an Osprey has arrived. No idea who it is - is it Ripply from last year or a new bird. I remember last year finding a facebook/blog page about this nest but for the life of me can't remember what it was so can't compare images from last season, so if anyone else can remember......
Thank you Connie for the link, sounds a bit more hopeful.

Well at least a fish supply every two days should keep them going for a little while - hopefully that means fizh today :) thanks Connie.
The article also mentions building two more platforms:
"... But Nelson Hydro is hoping that two other nesting poles they are building in the Harrop/Procter area provide a safer nesting spot."

Interesting account of banding (ringing) at Dunrovin
Good to see Harriet return almost immediately and Ozzie arrive with a fish. All settled down very quickly :)
Thank you Tiger.
