Do ospreys build nests in live trees?

Yes, ospreys often build their nests in live trees, particularly those near water sources where they can hunt for fish. They prefer sturdy branches and elevated locations to provide safety from predators. However, they can also nest on man-made structures like platforms, poles, and bridges if suitable trees are not available.


What kind of nest does osprey birds make?

Our ospreys have built their nest mainly of twigs and branches of all types and sizes. There is also plant and grass material as well as dried seaweed. Some other types of materials are string, rope, polypropylene rope well as plastic material such as supermarket bags. The nest has a lot of depth to it to provide heat retention and as a safety factor for keeping the chick in the nest since nests are mostly built near water or on platforms in the water. Our ospreys had elected to build their nest on the last "dolphin" (a group of three pilings used to secure a dock), of our dock. We had long nails hammered into the tops to keep seagulls off of them. These nails provided a base in which the ospreys were able to lay and weave the foundation for the nest. It took three seasons for our ospreys to build the nest large enough and secure enough to successfully nest and hatch their eggs. The first eggs hatched June12th, 2011. The male is fishing for bunker which he brings to the nest. The female then takes over and feeds herself and her chick from his catch. They are very skittish when nesting, so we elected not to use our boat until after the young ospreys have fledged.

Why are osprey and sparrow commensaism?

Ospreys and sparrows exhibit a form of commensalism when they share habitats, particularly in areas where ospreys nest. The presence of ospreys can provide a safer environment for sparrows, as their larger size and predatory nature can deter potential threats. While ospreys benefit from their nesting sites, sparrows gain protection without significantly impacting the ospreys. This relationship highlights the interconnectedness of species within ecosystems.
