I was out early this morning hoping to find the newly arrived Osprey doing a little fishing. I did see him (?) sitting on the nest – probably ready to defend his claim once others start to arrive. Pictured here is Mother Owl also doing her duty. There were lots of Blue Jays out and about as well as a good number of American Robins. Most are too busy to pose for a photo.
