Osprey On Channel Marker in Belmont Bay




From a distance it appears this pair of Osprey on the Occoquan River by the Belmont Bay Community have gone high tech and added an iPad to their nest.

Wonder if they are playing Angry Birds or perhaps they are ordering Sushi for dinner?

It's always fun to spend a few minutes watching the Osprey flying and fishing as the sun sets in Belmont Bay.

Sigh.  Even birds get an iPad before I do!   And I've never played Angry Birds either.  I'm so unhip.

That is exactly what it looks like.  That's funny - -or a solar heater.  Angry Birds, RIO, amazing how high tech birds have become.

Hi Cindy,

It looks very similar to a nest off of I-84 on the Columbia River - same contractor?

Cindy, if that's an ipad, it looks like both birds have lost interest for the moment.  Tell them to send it my way.

Ann-the problem with Angry Birds is once you get addicted you can waste far to much time.  Osprey don't seem so thrilled about it either:-)

Susan-it is actually a solar panel for the channel light.  Don't know if it works as a heater as well.

Mel & Gretchen-Osprey contractors are notoriously messy.  But we have a huge population in our area so the nests pop up everywhere.

William-those downloads can take a long time.  Wish I had just a little bit better telephoto lens for this pair.  They are just out of reach.

Judy-this pair decided to nest on a channel marker.  Smarter than the ones a few hundred feet away balancing on a no wake sign.

Good observation.  What a cute pair.  Even these birds are more hitech then I am.

So funny, Cindy!  My almost 3 year old grandson calls it "mad birds" - so......!  But I love any type of bird photographs - so interesting ...

Susan-yes there is.  It could also be a sounder so they know where the fish are :-)
