Thank you for the information, Melanie. When Bob and I stayed 
overnight on the Severn River in mid-July, a young osprey was 
carrying on much of the time. An adult bird was there--presumably 
Dad?--but I don't think it was feeding the youngster. We heard osprey 
calls until dark, and it was the first thing we heard come dawn. The 
young bird was by itself in the morning--I was wondering why it never 
shut up. Glad I know what's what. It's a hard adolescence for them!
