Living on a cove off the Connecticut River, we are neighbors to several Ospreys who use the nesting platforms on Thatchbed Island off South Cove in Essex. They are so common, cruising the skies looking for fish in the shallows of the cove, that when they leave, there is something indeed missing from the landscape.
Well this week, our friends have returned, and have begun fishing right away. This one is hovering over Cedar Lake in Chester, Connecticut. It didn't make the dive, but I have already seen two of these raptors with wiggling fish in their talons. Welcome back, friend.
