We golfed at Disney's Osprey Ridge Golf Course yesterday afternoon and got to observe nesting sites for ospreys. We think we saw at least two of these tall perches, one on the front nine and one on the back nine. From a distance the wooden perches resemble cell phone towers.
While golfing we heard a medium tone, chirping sound which we later figured out were the ospreys. The nests were build of sticks and hanging moss. The birds were active and, while we couldn't get in close and did not have binoculars, it was really neat to be near these huge birds of prey.
