Live video from Grand Lake Osprey camera

May 22 - Hello Osprey Watchers. .............. It appears that the female has laid her usual and average number of 3 eggs. When the eggs are laid, they are not all laid at the same moment. Rather, each egg is laid two or three days after the egg which precedes it. Likewise, when the chicks hatch, (around the first or second week of July), they also hatch in the same order that the eggs were laid. Therefore, the last chick to hatch can be up to a week younger than the first hatched chick. The chick will grow very quickly. In fact, they nearly double in size each week. Because of that, the first hatched chick will be significantly larger and stronger than the last hatched chick. Nevertheless, the smaller chicks always seem to survive, despite competition with their older and larger siblings. There is much to see and learn! ----- As always, I sincerely thank all of you for your support. The Ospreys provide all of us with a lot of entertainment, appreciation of nature, and knowledge as they raise their annual families. A number of you have made VERY generous contributions to help me keep this video stream going, and to maintain the nest and camera. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
