I am a photographer and a Licensed Master Wildlife Rehabilitator for DNR, Maryland.
I am starting on my US Fish and Widlifelife permit/license to house and rehab osprey.
Currently I am licensed only to treat and transport birds of prey, but not house them. My speciality with in the birds of prey is the osprey, thus my interest in nesting sites and numbers.

I am working on an osprey nest map for So. Md.
If you know of locations, please PM me.
If you have photos, post them!!!

Dead Eye has some of the best osprey photos I have seen here on the Forum!!
Thank you for sharing them DE!!!!

If you do watch a nesting site, I would love to see photos of the nest now, before the osprey arrive.

Any osprey or wildlife questions, feel free to contact me!
Thanks

My in-laws have a house on the water. They have always had Osprey living by their dock. A few years ago momma and baby were flying around the house. Next thing you know, ZAP! Baby bird hit the power lines and fell dead to the ground. That baby birds claws would have put a serious hurting on anyone!

Maybe I can get some good pictures of them this year.
