More abandoned nests than new ones...

I seem to spot more old, abandoned Osprey nests in King Township, than I do finding new, occupied nests.   This has been a trend for many years now.   Their are still Ospreys in the township, mainly because there many small ponds and lakes with fish, plus many wooded areas to develop the large nests Osprey prefer.   The empty nest pictured above is on the far western edge of King Township.
