My Osprey Today


We finally got a little rain late this afternoon, so the sky is grey. The wind is coming from the direction of that hurricane that might bother FL. Hope we get some more rain, but it doesn't look like it will be today.
Here is a link to a live OspreyCam here in Gulf Shores---I didn't even know it existed, well looks like it stopped on May 19th....oh well.

The Osprey is listed as Endangered in Kentucky, Missouri, Tennessee, and Alabama. Osprey populations were declining rapidly in the mid-1900's, most likely due to the use of DDT and other pesticides. With the banning of DDT and conservation programs (particularly, creating nesting platforms) for this species, Osprey populations are starting to increase.
