Savannah Georgia Osprey Nest - 2019-2021 Seasons
Welcome to the Savannah Georgia Osprey nest for the 2019-2021 seasons. This is an abandoned eagle nest adjacent to a protected, nutrient-rich salt marsh along the Georgia coast. The nest sits nearly 80 ft. above one of the six Audubon International Certified golf courses at The Landings, on Skidaway Island, near Savannah, Georgia. Some info on this nest from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology site here . Be sure to watch Cornell Osprey's videos posted on the page under the cam view. Many thanks to Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Skidaway Audubon for providing us with a wonderful opportunity to view the osprey family.

Over the past years there has been a pair of Great Horned Owls raising young in this nest. Unfortunately there was considerable damage done to the nest tree caused by storms and the cam was reattached to a platform attached to the nest. A pair of Osprey have frequented the nest for quite awhile and it looks like they are getting serious about setting up house. They have both been busy fixing up the nest and protecting 'their' territory. I am looking forward to seeing little oslets in this nest in the next few months.

Re: Savannah Georgia Osprey Nest - 2019 Season
Mr & Mrs O continue to build up the nest while Mr O brings home the dinner for Mrs O.
I'll post a few s'caps every few days until there are eggs in the nest.
These s'caps were taken from the Savannah Osprey site today; Mr O brings Mrs O a huge fish.
They spend a few moments together before Mrs O flies off with her meal.
