Lobster Land Osprey Update

Posted on by Pat D
A little update on the Essex Greenbelt osprey nest behind Lobsta Land: three chicks appear to be thriving now about 4.5 weeks old. They have been named Liz, Vivi and Rusty.  Very soon we should see spreading wings when we watch the osprey cam (located at this link).  Not long after that, they will take flight. They would be expected to remain with their parents for about 2 more months after fledging, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 

They are getting big and seem pretty active. This is a screenshot from the webcam and you can see Annie, Squam and the 3 chicks.
