This live streaming camera was first installed for the 2019 nesting season, where two young were produced by the unbanded female and banded male (788-49033), named Duke.
He was banded in 2006 as a nestling at Sedge Island (to the north of Barnegat Light), which is the most densely populated colony of nesting ospreys in New Jersey. Both first occupied this nest in 2018 and were together until fall migration in 2020.
That year the pair produced three young.
In 2021, the previous female did not return and she was replaced by a new (inexperienced) female, now named Daisy.
They raised two young in 2021.
2022 Season: We are looking forward to another great season at the BL Osprey Cam!
