Osprey Cam Now Live!

Ethel and Oscar returned to their nest in the Halifax Regional Municipality the first week of April.

They quickly started building up their nest; it is considerably bigger this year.

Ethel laid three eggs the second week in May. Only one chick hatched this year, the second week of June.

That may have been due to cold and wet weather during the period in which she was brooding.

Since that single chick is getting a lot of food, it is big for its age.

Pretty impressive Jesse Joe but we've got a pair of nesting nitwits who try to make the globe of an kerosene lamp home.

So you say that you have a pair of "nitwits"? Well, you should have this crazy chihuahua of mine. His favourite place to nest is under a pillow on the sofa or on the loveseat. That habit of his has us having to feel around under everything that there is on the furniture just so that we won't set on him!
