National Wildlife Magazine Vol 39 No.6 , October and November 2001,
contains an article about ospreys by Doug Stewart in which he says,
"Like it or not, we've created populations that are dependent on human
structures. Ospreys have become the purple martins of the raptor
world."

I have to agree with Ruth though, I have never seen an Osprey nest that
I can recall on a
natural structure here in the Puget Sound area.
