Bea laid a second egg Friday late afternoon egg - 4:20pm. This egg is undoubtedly from the male that was on the nest in January. The 1st egg is broken and the 2nd egg is being covered over. As Jasper and Bea continue to mate we await a second clutch.

Hey Joan,

The first has been broken and the second has been abandoned. Jasper and Bea may have some eggs by the end of the month or early March, we hope. Yeah, the screen repair went up quickly and we did not have to remove any nesting material which would have been time consuming for both us and the ospreys.

Thanks for checking on the pair and for being a viewer/blogger. :)

was the nest and or platform repaired before new season since last year eggs fell through

The platform was reinforced October 18, 2017. Our post from that date has a picture of the repairs to the platform.
