OspreyCam is now live for summer 2009!

Please be patient with the OspreyCam it can be slow due to the bandwidth of the camera.

Our OspreyCam brings you a real-time view of an osprey nest located in Nova Scotia. For the protection of the birds we do not release the actual location. The nest, which looks like a huge pile of sticks, is on a Nova Scotia Power pole and is home to a pair of adult Ospreys and two hatchlings.

Update:
Ethel and Oscar returned to their nest in the Halifax Regional Municipality the first week of April, 2009. They quickly started building up their nest adding new materials to it again this year.

The first hatchling was observed shortly after 8:00pm on Thursday, June 4th. Presently there are two hatchlings and one egg. The third egg should hatch soon, or it won't hatch at all. In the osprey world, unhatched do happen on a regular basis. So we have to stay tuned!
