Tragedy for the Osprey

Last week I posted Photos of the Osprey nest that I found but I am afriad I have some bad news.  Due to heavy winds in the area over the weekend the Ospreys have lost their nest. The top of the tree must have snapped off first becuase it was found floating on the other side of the lake.

The good news is that all survived when the tree fell the babies must have swam or flew to shore and both parents were seen watching over them from the trees.  We contacted a local resort and told them, they plan to connact the right people to help at least get the nest re-built for next year and to watch over the babies, where were pretty big (if you look at last weeks post) so they should be fine.
