Ospreys at work in early morning light-
Up before sunrise, this osprey pair is busy constructing nest in a new location… on the eagle mating tree at the mouth of Pomonkey Creek where it enters the Potomac River.

A bit awkward?
The long view-
Osprey pair hanging out together and making plans on Southern Red Oak tree that hangs over their nest site.
