Media notes
I believe the male relieved the female from nest duty - because the female left carrying a fish. She perched nearby and ate the fish.
Observation details
One carrying nesting, material, and later two together in platform nest. There are two next platforms. The one south of the parking lot has the two ospreys. The one north of the parking lot is empty. When the two ospreys were in the platform nest together, the female left with a fish and went to the top of a nearby telephone pole near the nest.
