  • Female and male osprey in flight, Bath, Maine, Sagadahoc County. The female is probably the mother of the male on the right. I was photographing a nest with two chicks and parents in residence. The male above showed up, but was not the father of the chicks in the nest. I think he was trying to come back to the nest he had been evicted from the year before, seeking food from his parents. He was turned away by his mom who had a new brood to feed. Pandion haliaetus, Osprey, Fish Hawk
