Osprey do build and repair nests in late summer, probably as a way of =
staking a claim to the spot.  Also may help lure females in spring.

We just noticed the same thing here in Itasca County.  There is a large =
power line near our house.  We were gone for a couple of weeks and now =
there is a new Osprey nest on one of the poles.  We did see the Osprey =
by the nest today.  I thought this was odd.  Does anyone know why they =
would build a nest this late in the year?

I'm posting this question for a colleague at work.

=20

She lives in Orono (western Hennepin County, near Lake Minnetonka) close =
to an osprey platform where nesting has occurred for the past number of =
years. =20

=20

In the past week, an osprey (she's unsure if it's an adult or juvenile) =
has started building a next across the street at the top of a power =
pole. =20

=20

She's curious if anyone can give her a hint about what might be going =
on?  Are the adults switching over to another nest.  Are other osprey =
moving into the neighborhood?  Are the juveniles building.

=20

Thanks for any info you can share.  You can write me off the listserv if =
you like:
