A big shout out to Heidi who alerted me to the arrival of the first osprey eggs in Florida!
Harry and Sally are great parents, and they have a good location for their babies’ fish. I would call this a very successful nest in the past, so if you are having osprey withdrawal, watch this couple when hatch arrives.

Frenchman’s Creek has had its problems in the past. GHO has taken an egg and a check last season and we have had a nest full of fish but no parent to feed the three chicks who did manage, amidst all our anxiety, to fledge!

Well, this is a great beginning. I am very partial to the Moorings Park nest and highly recommend it to you especially if you are a first time osprey nest watcher.
Thank you, Heidi! We have our first entries for the 2026 year in the data forms. Thank you for being with us today for these announcements – and to the owners of the streaming cams who allow us to watch our fish hawks.
