Description
A pair of ospreys (Pandion haliaetus) is in the midst of nest building activity. These birds chose the Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge, on Sanibel Island on the southwest Florida coast, as their home. The birds are also called fish eagles, sea hawks, river hawks, and fish hawks. Ospreys' diet consists primarily of live fish, and they dive into the water to catch them. The osprey is the only species in its family and is found worldwide.
