Viewer Jo N, noticed that the parents, Bea and Jasper, have not been seen on the nest for two days. I have been working at another location for the last two days and have not had an opportunity to observe the nest. I did check the camera about 5:30pm Wednesday evening and noticed a black headed turkey vulture on the nest. The vulture did not approach the eggs, just stood by them. Bea arrived about 20 minutes later and began incubating the eggs then standing above them.  Bea continued this process on and off the eggs for about 30 minutes.

This morning upon arriving to work, Jasper was incubating the three eggs. There have been two other ospreys attempting to occupy the nest with Bea and Jasper quickly dispatching them.

We'll have to wait and see if the three eggs are viable. Hopefully the pair stays attentive to their eggs as there are about 3 to 4 more weeks for the incubation period.
