Thanks Jazzel. That's great news after all the heartache of last year.

P.S. The fledgling must have returned to the nest for a visit. The two chicks have been there for the past half hour.

I think it has not yet actually fledged, but is branching. Up to the right there are branches we normally don't see, but this morning I saw the tip of it, when one Osprey (young or Mom?) sat on it.
Just a few moments ago I saw a huge rain cloud approaching and now it's raining at the nest.

Thanks for the pictures and time of the first fledge, Ploughboy! And lovely golden picture, Conny. And thanks Jazzel, skygirlblue, and everyone for the pictures and notes on this nest. So wonderful to see it going so well this year.

Here are my pictures of the fledging of the second chick at about 16:26 EEST (9:26 am EDT, 6:26 am PDT)

First the fledgling leaves.

Mom leaves a minute or two later (no pic).

The remaining chick checks her wings

Some practice flaps

Checking lift

Lift is working

And she's off

And away!

I do love that you can see them flying in the distance sometimes!

Mom returned to the nest around 16:54, and one of the chicks arrived at 17:03. I think it was the newly fledged chick – but can't actually be sure. The chick left again at 18:11 EEST (11:11 am eastern, 8:11 am pacific); the adult had left a minute or two earlier.

Both chicks are back at the nest now with Mom, and Dad brought them a fish, which Mom promptly served - so both have had successful flights.

I'm thinking it was the slightly smaller one who fledged first, though I don't actually know if he or she is younger. Not sure of that, though. They did hatch a day apart and fledge a day apart, so very similar no matter which order.

Added - This was the first flight I saw by the second chick; I look forward to the official report to see if it was indeed the fledge.
:smile:

Great pictures everyone! I'm so glad that both chicks fledged successfully, but I'm hoping that they'll still make occasional visits back to the nest so we can enjoy their company a little bit longer before they start their long migration. This family certainly has been a joy to watch this season!
