For a couple of days there have been reports around the Lake of the return of Ospreys. I saw my first one (indeed, three of them) this morning.
A newly arrived female Osprey lands on a branch.

Thanks for this super picture. Thought I saw one in the woods behind us yesterday.
Easter greetings to you both. Irene
So I wonder if the nesting geese are ready to absent their nests to give them up for the ospreys!
Karen, do you think that the geese will do that as a gesture of good will?
Spring and summer on Kootenay Lake, Costa Rica for the off season. These beautiful birds have the right idea. The commute however must be a challenge.
Jennifer, think of all the paperwork they need to pass through those borders.
We saw our first osprey a few days ago. Well, Terry saw it, I didn’t, perched on its nest on the highway near Blewett. We’d been watching for a couple of weeks, anticipating their return. This is a fabulous photo!
