Those of you who have been
following our OspreyCam know that our three baby chicks – Ollie, Olive and
Oscar Jr. – have recently taken flight and are preparing to leave the next and
migrate south in the next few weeks.
We’ve received a ton of positive
feedback about the OspreyCam and I wanted to share a few comments with you:
“I
want to thank you all for your time and effort and taking care of the camera so
we can all enjoy watching Oscar & Oliveea and their babies. I am an
elementary school teacher in Los Angeles, and my classes and I have enjoyed the
past two years of the activity there in Yadkin atop the dam. It is so
wonderful! Will be tuning in next winter to see the new family of babies!!
Thanks so much, and God bless you all.”
“Thank you for this wonderful site!
I just discovered it this year and have deeply enjoyed watching the
little family start and grow! I am sure I will miss them when they leave
this year, but looking forward to following it all again next year. Thank you
for helping our wildlife and giving us a site like this to learn and enjoy.”
We look forward to watching the
osprey again next year and hope you will join us to see the arrival of a new
set of baby chicks. Osprey typically began working on their nest atop the Narrows
Dam at Badin Lake in March. The chicks hatch in late April and take flight in June.
