Bird Droppings Dispatches from the nation’s birdwatching capital… by Seymore Thanu March 17 (St Patrick’s Day, to those of you deprived of Irish descent) is also the day our Osprey returns to New Jersey. There is no causeand-effect relationship that I am aware. It’s just that the Osprey timetable and the wearing of the green coincide. A common summer resident, way back in November, the last of North America’s Osprey trickled past the hawk watch at Cape May Point State Park. Their destination was the Amazon Basin where summer sun is a 365 day per year fact of life. But now with their hormones raging, it’s time for adults to begin a new breeding season. Last year’s young will sit this year out, electing to remain in the tropics. Why risk a perilous journey if you are not going to breed? But with menhaden returning to Delaware Bay, Osprey are reestablishing territories and in the days ahead rekindling pair bonds with birds engaging in high circling and spirited aerial displays that demonstrate their breeding fitness. The courtship is sealed with a fish. Chesapeake Bay hosts the continent’s greatest concentration of breeding Osprey but Delaware Bay is not far behind and frankly the two watersheds might be considered one as far as Osprey are concerned. Soaring aloft on the super-heated air of mid-summer, it’s certain an Osprey soaring over the Maurice River is seeing the glint of sunlight shining on the Chesapeake. An Osprey that high is not fishing. For fishing birds cruise along under 200 feet, then descend to 60 feet when prey is sighted, they plunge. Targeting prey swimming within three feet of the surface, the birds sometimes submerge their entire bodies to secure prey. Fish catching machines, the feet of Osprey have a swiveling outer toe that allows them to present prey with a four cornered net of talons. The pads of an Osprey’s feet are embedded with tiny spicules designed for grasping slippery prey. And birds rising after a plunge, fish in tow trail a string of silver water droplets as they climb. And climb they must because if successful, it is almost certain that one or more Bald Eagles will be in pursuit. The brigands almost always succeed in forcing the Osprey to drop its catch. Eagles with young already in the nest by April, call this business as usual. The volume of eagles and Osprey breeding locally attest to the health of our aquatic ecosystem — indeed most Osprey along the Maurice River manage to fledge three to four young per nesting cycle; eagles two to three.
