Tweeters,

A couple unusual sightings at Spencer Island this afternoon
included an Osprey fishing the ponds on the north side of the
cross dike. Saw no dives in over half an hour of hunting. I
was certainly surprised to see an Osprey this late, although
they have been known to winter over here once in a while. A
group of FIVE river otters was having better luck fishing in
the slough near the bridge. It seemed every time one came up
it was munching away. We were able to watch them slowly work
their way south in the slough.
