We now have a map of Osprey nests available online. Check it out at http://gbosprey.ca/Ospreynests.html

The Osprey is one of the world's best known and admired birds of prey. It can be found nearly worldwide, feeding almost exclusively on live fish which it snatches from the water after dramatic plunges. Osprey populations were threatened in the 1950s and 60s as pesticide contamination reduced egg viability. Since the early 1970s, when populations had decreased by about 50%, conservation efforts have resulted in regained breeding strength and numbers. Read more about these birds on the About Ospreys page.

Our members viewed the nests on Georgian Bay for another season in 2006 and the latest counts were put in a report. View the monitoring reports on Osprey populations, view the nest locations, or read about building your own Osprey nest pole on the monitoring page.
