Inside an Osprey's Nest: A Photographic Journey through Nesting Season

Autor Teena Ruark Gorrow, Craig Koppie
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 noi 2016
Take a photographic journey through nesting season with a newly mated osprey pair. In this true raptor adventure, the ospreys prepare a nest and mate, but their eggs do not hatch. Through an unlikely twist of events, biologists swap the unviable eggs with hatchlings from an ill-fated nest. Witness the heartwarming account as the adults become foster parents and care for the young, including a nest interloper. Watch as the helpless chicks grow into fledglings and experience their first flight. Resources include the osprey’s current plight, tips for helping injured ospreys, and a glossary of terms. Like the award-winning Inside a Bald Eagle’s Nest, this second collaboration by the authors is a timeless treasure to be enjoyed by all ages. With comprehensive information and 380 photographs of the ospreys’ natural habitat, it is perfect for raptor enthusiasts, webcam viewers, nature and wildlife lovers, conservationists, teachers, children, and photographers.
