SOMEWHAT similar to what happened here last year.

LARGE nest adjacent to my house, has been here for many years; I've been here 'only' for 6.

Have watched same osprey pair return and meet every spring, and watched 'kids' hatch, learn, and thrive, but last year an eagle attacked (neighbor saw it) and destroyed the egg(s) being warmed, so no kids last year.

Eagles usually in the neighborhood, but haven't seen them lately; nor have I been out as often as usual, due to weather.
