“Steam Shovel Sally’s” kids on Lavaque Road in the Duluth area are learning how to fly today). Lots of fun to watch, and unlike in the Olympics, the Osprey chicks are not earning perfect 10’s and sticking their landings. Still learning about upwind approaches! I suspect these young raptors will be fully fledged in a day or two, then come fishing lessons.
Ten years ago a gentleman than owns a construction firm hoisted a shovel high in the sky. Within two years the ospreys adopted “the bucket”!
