IMPORTANT: Messages from osprey experts

Rob Bierregaard July 1, 2015 at 7:24 am
I haven’t seen the little guy yet this morning, but I would be very surprised if he survived the night. That sure was tough to watch yesterday, but that whole process is as much a part of the essence of being an Osprey as is eating a fish. It’s part of the life of Ospreys that was rarely seen before we started putting cameras in nests. As hard as it is, we should not label the behavior as mean or cruel. Being mean or cruel implies that there is intent to do harm just for harm’s sake. Those young were responding to a set of stimuli (very little food being delivered to the nest and the presence of a very small young) in a way that evolution has hard-wired into them. It helps ensure their survival. Nature is not cruel. It is harsh, unforgiving, and often random (had the little guy been born 1st, he would have been just as aggressive as was his sibling), but not cruel or mean.

Thanks Rob for bringing your knowledge and experience to help us all gain perspective here. We are all saddened by the events that unfolded before our eyes and it’s only natural for all of us to feel and express our emotions appropriately. There have been many issues pertaining to intervention which have been discussed amongst us all. There is no doubt in my mind that the right decision was made, to let nature take it’s course. By the way, that doesn’t equate to heartless, on the contrary, nobody feels worse about this then the apparent decision makers. I say apparent, because when all was said and done, and all the issues were properly weighed, there really weren’t any other options. It was clearly pointed out, by experts, that intervening at this stage could have spooked the whole nest to the point of losing all the young. If the little one was saved, and nursed back to health, what kind of a life would it have had, perhaps caged up in a zoo. I remember when I was younger I saw a golden eagle in captivity, caged behind a wire mesh. I could practically see it’s tears. As far as placing the little one in another nest, such a low probability of success would never have justified the possibility of spooking the nest. There’s a piece of me, however heavy hearted, that believes that perhaps it is better to be born free and die free. We mourn for the little one as we marvel at the wonders of nature.

Hello Paul,

Thanks for your query, and you have my admiration for persevering. We know very well how tough your job is, including dealing with an anxious public.

Our policy with our Bird Cams project is essentially “just say no” to pleas for interference. The behavior you are witnessing – while seemingly cruel and heartless to us – is natural for many kinds of birds, especially those that feed on variable, unpredictable food supplies. The little nestling does have a chance to survive, but if it does not then that result was “meant to be” by the nature of Osprey breeding strategy. The wonderful things about these nest cameras also sometimes yield the difficult things for us to watch. As you might know, we actually post a “siblicide alert” on some of our cams where we suspect the possibility exists.

I’m copying your note to Charles Eldermire, project leader for our Bird Cams. He may have some additional comments, and he would be the one to ask if we might be able to use your stored files for biological analysis.

Best wishes, and good luck,

John W. Fitzpatrick

Director, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

In addition, Charles Eldermire, Bird Cams Project Leader, Cornell Lab of Ornithology Writes:

It’s also important to acknowledge that intervening can also cause problems of its own—depending on the ages of the birds in the nest, disturbing them can trigger an early fledge. We have restricted the scenarios in which we would even consider intervening to injuries or dangers that are explicitly human-derived. For example, 3 or 4 years ago we were alerted by viewers that one of the osprey chicks at the Hellgate Osprey nest was entangled in monofilament line. We consulted with our partners there (wildlife biologists, raptor researchers, raptor rehabbers) to determine if the monofilament was an issue, and if intervening was both likely to solve the issue AND not have bad effects on the other nestlings. In the end, a quick trip to the nest was scheduled via a bucket truck, the monofilament was removed, and the nestlings all eventually fledged. In that case, all of the permits were already in hand to be studying the ospreys, and we had already discussed how to approach issues in the nest.

Good luck to the young one—hope it all turns out well.

Paul,

I’ve been to your site—great cam! And I noticed the runt in the nest. This is just normal Osprey reproduction. It happens all the time and you should not intervene. It’s tough to watch, but it’s how nature works. Ospreys almost always lay 3 eggs and on average fledge between 1 and 1.5 young each year. They stagger the hatch so there is a spread of ages in the young. That way, if food is short, the first-hatched (and therefore largest) will get enough food to survive while the smaller nest mates do not. If all three young were the same size and there was only enough food for 1 young, none of the young would get enough food and they would all die. If there’s lots of food, the smallest will eventually get fed and can survive. These nest cams can show some gut-wrenching scenes. The most infamous perhaps was one of the very first Osprey cams (on Long Island somewhere), where the smallest young died. One of the adults carried it out of the nest and after several minutes flew back into the nest and fed it to the other young. Waste-not-want-not at its goriest. At Hog Island up in Maine just last week a Bald Eagle came in and took the young out of the nest. Last year at another nest, cameras documented a Great-horned Owl taking young Ospreys out of a nest in NJ or MD. All of these things have been going on for millions of years and Ospreys are doing fine.

“Interesting. They don’t often take over osprey poles—probably too small for them. They will coopt tree nests, which they can expand. We had a pair of eagles do this on the Vineyard. They built up the Osprey nest a lot and then the Ospreys came home and drove the eagles away, in a David v. Goliath story. The Ospreys successfully bred. They looked tiny in the nest, which sadly blew down this winter.”

        Going exploring, found video Youtube- of Jane meeting her first chick. For anyone who doesn’t know…. Jane was a first time mom-reluctant- and G had spent a lot of time sitting the eggs himself, particularly at night. The egg hatched under him.

      AIDAN…..
      Hate to be a PITA,,,,,
      Can’t get logo, date on same pic without the big redline.and take pic at same time . Takes a sec or so for redline to fade and moment may have passed. We had both logo and date at bottom last year. Is it possible to go back?
      Also, when logo at top, can’t crop out all excess black space without cropping logo, too. Making actual pic smaller.
      Thanks for your input as always.
      Or is this just a me issue? I could understand that.

        If that eagle spends a lot of time at the nest, our pair will likely nest elsewhere. So fingers crossed that eagle finds another place to hang out.

      Greetings, looking forward to a great season.

      I have 2 requests:

      1) Please restrict postings, images and videos to only about the Ospreyzone nest.
      2) When an image or still is shared, please don’t crop out the bottom line with date and time etc. I need it to be able to come back for being included in highlights. Also, my copyright is important to me.

      Please note that I encourage you to point out highlight worthy moments, as I can’t see everything but I’m hoping to keep up with the nest this year in our highlights. I also have an Osprey intro and a history of The plight if the Osprey , made by some of my students recently, to be published shortly, stand by.

      Many thanks.

      My son saw an osprey today, near Shore Road in Douglaston adjacent to Little Neck Bay. Isn’t this a bit unusual? I thought all ospreys were gone by now? He or she was eating a fish while on the roadway?

      • Admin Mary Anne October 31, 2022 at 10:55 am - Reply

        I find it interesting that the osprey was eating a fish on the road! Yes, most are gone, but there are always some leaving later than the majority of them. Most likely they are juveniles. Some from LI, and others stop over to rest here from the north, before continuing on their journey south.

      It’s time to say goodbye to our O’Sprey family.
      The Peanuts gang, who kept us entertained….. and just the fact that we had 3 was a joyful surprise ! And little Pixie who stayed such a short time. It’s a first for our nest to have 4 hatch.
      Beautiful Lucy, who has been a super Mom and taught us so much!
      And our ever entertaining Studmuffin! Always tormenting us with his sticks in front of the lens! An excellent dad.

      We wish you a safe trip…. Gentle winds to carry you; fish a’plenty, and sun to warm you. For the kids: a safe and long life and families of your own.
      And George and Lucy, til we see you in the Spring, God-speed…….

        Betsy let me know I had just missed spotting someone flying off perch just minutes. before that shot. Looked more like juvenile but the exit was quick and straight out and down.

      Have been away…did Jane leave. If so about when…reading posts seems to be two left…when did one of them leave………this is getting late for them….wishing family safe flights for those who left..

        Not sure but best guess is Lucy left after 9/2/22.
        Don’t have a date for first kid. There’s been issues with the video. As far as 2nd chick, I think there were 2 here til around 9/15.
        Still not sure about G and last kid. The nest has been pretty empty. Someone was heard but not seen with a wisp of a glimpse of someone flylng out this a.m.

      This kid may have caught her own breakfish. She flew in about 7:07 with a whole flipping fish and has been working on it.
      The sun’s angle makes it difficult but only saw one. Bird and this one came flying in excited with 2 feet firmly gripping this treasure.
      The fairies gathered to dance and celebrate… is that Pixie front and center?

        Left about 7:49 with her fish in tow.
        What may have been 2nd kid came in briefly minutes later to look around and flew after her

      G is in for the 3rd time with fish.@14:24
      One kid got a fish around 12:26
      Sib got one about 13:36
      This time, he has a chunk but no takers. Busy

      My son has been fishing a few times this week. He says the fish are plentiful but mostly shorts; several different kinds from blues, fluke, bass. Too small to be legal for us.
