More Ospreys

Today we rode out to Marymoor and back.  Jim's somewhat congested (is there anything sadder than a sick man?) so it was not a fast ride.  It was a gorgeous day.  This has been the best summer I can remember ever
We were coming back down the East Lake Sammamish trail when we heard more Ospreys hollering.  This is a cell tower.  Look at the size of the nest, they build with sticks and they make huge nests, to which they return year after year.  In the wild, they can live as long as 25 years. They also build on electrical towers, when can result in electrocution.  Cell towers and channel buoys are their safest building sites. 

 
Other than this, I have nothing of interest to offer.
