Most days when I go down to watch this nest, I see the mom or dad get additional sticks to add to the nest pile. Most of the time they are sticks floating nearby on the Hudson River, or from the nearby shore.
Dad was out, so the adult appears to be the mom. Sometimes I think it is also an excuse for her to cool down by landing in the water for a few seconds.
In the above picture it appears she is mulling over where to place the stick in the nest. Maybe the chicks are giving her input. Have a great Monday!

Over a 100 degrees F here the past two days. They were not happy campers today.

I wouldn’t be either. I hope it cools off and they will survive!

I have not seen the eagles bothering them lately. It’s other Osprey that are upsetting the apple cart.
