There are worse things. I sure would like a pair of nesting hostile ospreys at my house.

Kudos for building the stand. Years ago we camped on the Priest River in Idaho where a pair had nested atop a railroad bridge.

They flew and squeaked just as you discribed every time we passed them. Much fun to watch as they cared for the young. Fantastic to see them dive and pull up with a fish in their talons.joehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08520161706680568508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30939606.post-56722790367534227892013-05-06T09:42:17.505-05:002013-05-06T09:42:17.505-05:00I am glad they got their relationship problem sort...I am glad they got their relationship problem sorted out :)<br />Lovely photos, as usual.
