Osprey.

Like many others in the northwest, I saw my first Osprey of the year yesterday.  A pair actually, sitting on the nest on Rentenaar Road. 



They took off soaring in the wind and disappeared out of sight...  Looking foward to more showing up soon!

    Great photos! I like the decorative flowers and moss on their nest. The ones here seem to collect all sorts of trash in their nests.

    That Osprey nest is much more beautiful than others. It must be a part of that Oregon flower power.
