The osprey are nesting again at Sparrows Point.  Last week I saw one
fly
overhead from my office window.  It was carrying a huge branch in its
beak.

There is a nest clearly visible from the Beltway.  It's on top of a
big
utility pole to the right of the Beltway as you drive north from
Sparrows
Point on the outer loop.  I think it's between exits 42 and 41.  They
have
nested there for several years, and this week I've seen a bird on this

nest a couple of times, so they're back there.
