I wanted to share this video with the other members of this list. It was
made Thursday and shows two adult bald eagles fending off an aggressive
osprey. A park volunteer told me that the eagles had taken over the
osprey's nest from last year and the osprey wasn't too happy about it.
The nest is located 75 yards from this sports complex off Rt. 17. The birds
are totally unconcerned about anything happening on the ground, so they
aren't skittish. Two fledglings can be seen in the nest and both look ready
to fly any day.
Anyway, here's the link: http://youtu.be/UDi5d0hq9sw
