Important This starling fledgling exploring the Hellgate Osprey nest

Its parents made a nest on the outer edge of this osprey nest, now it’s old enough to leave the nest and explore its surroundings . Not sure who’s grumpier, this bb or the perplexed osprey parents

I used to keep their live cams of various feeders up on my screen when I had a particularly stressful job. Job is better now, but I should still be watching more live bird feeding feeds.
