The resident osprey have accepted the new nest platform erected on the eastern ridge-side to replace the nest destroyed in the recent powerline renovations. There is at least one young bird on the nest that I can see through a spotting scope from across the bay; there could be more.

Other sightings, auditions, over 3 1/2 days of observation from our deck:
Peregrine Falcon, roosting on the new powerline tower
Cedar Waxwing, one pair
Black-capped Chickadee
Chestnut-backed Chickadee
Red-breasted Nuthatch
Steller's Jay
Great Blue Heron, 7 regularly fishing in the shallows; they roost (nest?) in the evergreens on the ridge on the eastern side of the bay
Song Sparrow
Pacific-slope Flycatcher
Swainson's Thrush
Red-breasted Nuthatch
Anna's Hummingbird
Rufous Hummingbird
Canada Geese, a flock of 19 hanging around
American Robin
Bald Eagle, adult
Yellow-rumped Warbler
Black-throated Gray Warbler
Crows and Gulls, of course
and, a Harbor Seal
