Watching over Nest

Description
When visiting the Osprey nest the other day the male Osprey was sitting out on his pole with the female Osprey on another pole not too far away. She quickly flew back to the nest to protect the chicks. I am now able to report that one chick is big enough to poke his head up and just above the twigs at the top of the nest. Hopefully more have survived and will be visible shortly. The male Osprey stayed on the pole watching over the nest and ready to fly back if needed.
