The Osprey is one of the most widespread birds of prey and can be found on every continent except Antarctica.

They lay eggs (typically three), which both parents help to incubate. Osprey eggs don't hatch all at once, but are staggered .

This is one family [ photos taken in a parking lot; the nest is on top of a light pole ] ..

Found another family with an even younger chick.
Photos to come ...
