Location: The Landings, Skidaway Island
Ospreys nesting here in 2019 laid three eggs in March, all of which hatched. The young fledged by mid-June. They will stray farther and farther from the nest as they learn to feed themselves. Yet throughout the year the site will be visited by ospreys and other birds, until—hopefully—it’s used again for nesting by ospreys or other birds of prey. Stay tuned!
The site has three cams. Two are streamed here; the third is available at The Landings bird cam homepage.
Background: Using a nest built by bald eagles, owls raised two owlets each in 2015 and 2016. Ospreys nested at the site in 2017. But only one of their three eggs hatched, and another adult osprey killed the chick.
