Western Osprey (Pandion haliaetus)
Date and Time: 5 April 2008, 09:00
Location: Backyard (Chester County, PA, United States)
Number observed: 1
Adult males: 1
Notes:
The osprey was spotted in a tree overlooking the pond. He dove into the pond, and then flew upwards and circled the pond a few times before flying off. We couldn't tell if he captured any prey.
Ospreys are rare around our pond, but the last time we saw one was April one year ago!
