There has been an osprey working the upper Peach Creek drainage the past couple of weeks, sighted between Capstone and the Wellborn post office. I asked a falconry licensed friend if it might be off the Brazos but he thought the river was too muddy for a sight-hunting bird. Maybe Gibbons but the closest I have ever seen one was lake Conroe. Thought it was of interest.

What time is March In tomorrow? Missed Sanford because I didn't verify the time and they stepped off 2 hours ahead instead of 1-1/2.

Back in March I watched one catching fish in a five acre pond in Robertson County. A Caracara would swoop on and harass it every time it caught something and it would drop it back in the water. Finally got one and headed out and for some reason dropped in about 100 feet from the water as it flew away. It was about a 12 inch bass. I assume it was just migrating through.

Thanks, Tailgate. Hope all is well. We should grab lunch soon. You should check in on Kyle. I THINK he's moving into a role that's much more closely aligned with what he wants to do. Guessing he'd be excited to talk to you about it.

Sounds like a plan! Merry Christmas! Let's touch base in the new year.

BCS is becoming more raptor diverse; I saw a caracara beat the crap out of some vultures over roadkill in front of my house last year. Cool and vaguely scary looking birds.

Ospreys are an indicator species…means things are good when they show up (unless you're a fish).

I read 3/4 of this before I finally figured out we were talking about the bird not the crash prone aircraft

Very cool! I would love to see a real osprey bird in person

Have seen an Osprey and a Bald Eagle at the pond across the street from our property right off highway 30. Cool to see these kinds of birds around!

One is a fairly common raptor. The other is a platform I would never fly as a pilot or ride in as a passenger.
