Osprey Chick fledges on camera in KY

[Patti from Kentucky]

The video quality on this site isn't the greatest...but there are some interesting videos posted (pictures as well).

The menu on the left will take you to the video archive and the photo archive.

The latest videos are of the first chick fledging, and returning (not making a great landing...)

Thanks, Patti!  Those are very interesting videos!  I really love the fledgling's landing -- looked pretty good to me -- not perfect, but pretty darn good!  And soon it won't even think about it!  Isn't nature wonderful and isn't it wonderful that we can peek in and see some pretty special moments!

Thanks, again!

The hovering is the best part! How do they do it? Thanks Patti.

that's GREAT. Thanks so much for the link. I wanted to see how that worked! It hovered, realized, "hey, if that worked fine, we're in business," and then just LEFT. Unimaginable.

Cool vid Patty. Thanks for sharing. I'm missing the Ospreys in Rah-cha-cha.

I thought the same thing Dale - it just bolted after realizing it could sustain itself in flight.
