This is an Osprey family, the mother on the left, feeding her baby, while the father on the right stands guard. This was at the Osprey nest site on Murlark Ave. in the industrial area of West Salem. It's been a hard Spring on Osprey this year. Heavy late snow fall in Northern California delayed their arrival to our area, and with our wet Spring, many nest sites have failed, so we were ecstatic to be able to document a success story when this photo was taken last week on June 10th.
