We Have Eggs!

We have eggs - three of them! They are in our osprey nest and we are watching them on our osprey cam in the Eastern Shore of Virginia NWR visitor center. Come and watch with us as we follow our osprey pair and their latest nest full of eggs through hatching and fledging.

The parents are very dedicated and protective as they guard against the weather and other raptors, but we get glimpses of the eggs as the parents turn the eggs or during change over as they take turns caring for the eggs. This is the third year Eastern Shore of Virginia NWR has had the osprey cam and it has been a big hit. The first year, the pair raised three young and the second year they raised two. This looks like another big year!
