Has a date been set for the pier picnic yet? Haven't seen anything posted and was trying to make it this year.
You are one sharp cookie, Mr. #r. Few people are aware of the Nature Conservancy.Quote:

There's an adult osprey in the nest now, building it up with twigs.
Just looked on there and there was a squirrel up right by the nest with a large osprey (female?) in the nest watching it closely. Methinks that squirrel was living dangerously.
Very cool! i look at the sea'n suds camera when I want a little taste of GS and the beach and I will be looking in on this one to see the brood being raised. Thanks
We partner and work with TNC all the time, the Alabama Chapter is truly a great bunch people!
Squirrels love bird eggs. Carl, we were volunteers for the Conservancy and Natural Heritage Program in our area for years, working on site restoration for sarracenia oryphilla. (spelling?). I loved working with those folks, and setting fires, though cutting firebreaks for weeks in advance was less fun than fishing. Still have my fire gear and my original shake n bake shelter. The State dropped the ball on the Heritage Program, at least up here, and the pitcher plant sites have grown back up with maples and sweetgums. Sad.
Was watching this morning. Saw at least 2 eggs in there. They are taking turns sitting on them and when they switched places I saw at least 2 eggs. Can't tell the difference between the male and the female but the one sitting on there now is quiet and the other one is a lot more vocal. I'm guessing the vocal one is the female. LOL Really cool.
