And in the for what it is worth category, osprey eggs are, at least to my eye, as beautiful as any eggs you'll likely see. Exquisite. .......
... the south osprey nest now has two new occupants - future occupants, anyway. Uncharacteristically, the female was off the nest leaving two eggs unsheltered and unprotected just a few minutes ago. Seems like that happened with this osprey a time or two last year, but it really is a rare occurence.

And the female on the north osprey nest is almost certainly laying on eggs at this point.
