This wonderful species was once threatened but conservation programs have been successful, and the species is now fairly common.
Nicknames for the Osprey include fish hawk, sea hawk, river hawk and eagle hawk. These nicknames reflect the Osprey's fish diet and habitats near water.
Ospreys are found throughout Canada, in Alaska and the western United States, plus Florida, and coastal Mexico. Osprey are also unusual in that they are the sole living species that occurs nearly worldwide.
