[CT Birds] Maine ospreys

[Kathy Van Der Aue]

We were opening the cottage in Maine this past weekend and saw the ospreys 
return.  We see two nests from the house.  The first day there was much 
squabbling but on the second morning each nest had two birds on it.  By the 
third morning there was mutual preening going on.  Ah, spring!  It was 
lovely, that rare period in early spring when you can go outside in 
shirtsleeves and not get eaten alive by blackflies.
