A male Osprey swooped onto the Hellgate nest in Missoula, Montana this morning. Watch the bird make a confident landing and immediately begin making arrangements to the nest. By the looks of it, this male is likely Louis—the patriarch of the nest and Iris's mate. If this visit does mark Louis's return, he would be right on time! In 2018, Louis completed his long journey back to the nest on April 4.
