For the latest news about ospreys at Lake Arrowhead or ospreys
in general, check in here to see what's going on.
Two pairs of ospreys
nested and produced chicks at Lake Arrowhead in 2006, one
fewer than the year before. 2005 was the first time
three pairs of the birds successfully nested at the lake,
after several years of two-nest success!
One of the previous
nests fell over in the spring of 2006, but the two other sites
from 2005 successfully hosted breeding pairs. We restored
the failed site last year, and hope birds will return to it
in 2007.
Thanks to great
success at sites throughout northern Vermont, the state has
removed ospreys from the endangered species list! This
marks a great success story for ospreys, and the collaborative
efforts that have returned them to Vermont's skies.
