Young Ospreys Ready for Flight Over Lake Allatoona
For nesting ospreys at Georgia's Lake Allatoona, its almost time for the young to take flight. With more than a dozen man-made nesting platforms and other natural sites, it's not unusual to see ospreys soaring high above Lake Allatoona. The impressive large birds have a wingspan of over five feet. Due to their size and white heads, they often are confused with the larger bald eagle. We've been monitoring closely one pair of nesting ospreys with a platform nest at Allatoona Battlefield Park. The young have hatched, and based on size, age and other characteristics, the juveniles should be flying soon. Check out the video for more about the nesting ospreys and their young.

It is remarkable to come across a bird you never knew existed. We had the fortune of spotting a Northern Saw-Whet Owl near our bird feeder recently. I was quick to snap some pictures and film some videos as I knew I had to find out what type of owl this was. Everyone was quick to point out just how small it was.
The Magnificent and Flourishing Osprey!
These Fish Hawks Can be Found Worldwide. It wasn’t long ago I encountered the Red-Tailed Hawk, but I have become more and more aware of the Osprey, another raptor. We have several local nests here in Michigan, and what was once a rare sighting event has become increasingly common from year to year.
Watch out for Sandhill Cranes!
It is Sandhill crane nesting season so watch out for these beautiful birds while on the road. They often cross roads looking for food and are not afraid of humans so if you see a family make sure to stop and enjoy the view while they pass.
