Osprey's and their chicks

It's baby time in Cape May County.  I hadn't been by the Osprey nest on North Wildwood Blvd recently but know that the parents had been sitting on eggs.  I thought that since the Oystercatchers had chicks born already that it was a pretty good bet that the Osprey chicks had also been born.  I was excited to see 3 chicks that looked only a few days old.  Dad had flown in flounder for breakfast and Mom was busy feeding the chicks.

No time to get out to see the birds these days but finally had to steal some time before all of the chicks grew up and fly away.
