Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode: Nesting, Snacks & Playtime
Skylar, our resident osprey, was busy today—like mama-on-a-mission busy. She spent the morning searching for long sticks and hauling them one by one back to her pole. I’ve known Skylar since 2018 and I’ve never seen her nest-building before.
Over the last two weeks, several new ospreys and even a few bald eagles have flown in for the winter season. This means Skylar has been doing a LOT of screaming lately. Every time another bird of prey dares to enter her airspace, she lets them know loud and clear, “Get off my lawn! This is MY territory!”
Normally she would chase them off with a dramatic aerial show, but today she had more important things to do—nest first, drama later.
Meanwhile, Charley and M stopped by, Whisper and Ocean cruised through, and Cliff arrived with two friends. They grabbed lunch, played with mangrove seeds, and enjoyed some relaxed hang time—just another beautiful day in the lagoon.
Stay tuned for more tales!
