Pops with a snack
Originally uploaded by Finiky.

04/26/09 - The male and female traded off on egg sitting per usual. Other Osprey's fishing were causing the Male aka Pa or Pops to vocalize. At one point while the female aka Ma was out in the middle of the Potomac on a sandbar during low tide, Pops alerted her to an Eagle flying over head. Ma wasted no time in getting back to the nest.

The Eagle was fishing, grabbed one and off it went in the opposite direction.

Pops later went fishing, was sitting in a tree eating when he finally had to stop and go claim his space from another Osprey.

This pair - they are a good team.
