Several ospreys were spotted hanging out in the vicinity of the Field Station and Scajaquada Creek late this summer, including one that perched on the osprey nesting platform at the Field Station. Though their presence was fleeting, hopefully this is a positive sign that the osprey pole, installed as part of habitat enhancements, might be utilized more in future seasons!
The GLOS buoy was retrieved on an October morning. When Mark and Brian arrived, there was a common tern perched on it.
