Águila pescadora (Pandion haliaetus) La subespecie P.h. ridgwayi es endémica del Caribe. Su cabeza es más blanca que la de la subespecie migratoria P.h. carolinensis que nos visita en invierno, particularmente en Laguna de Términos, Campeche. se alimenta casi exclusivamente de peces que atrapa metiendo solo sus garras al agua. Se reproduce de enero a abril; pone de 2 a 3 huevos. Su nido es una estructura construida de armas y que tras varios años puede llegar a pesar hasta media tonelada. Lo construye en manglares detrás de la costa o en estructuras como faros y postes. Regresa con su pareja al mismo nido año con año.
Residente permanente de la costa del Mar Caribe, mide 62 cm.
Osprey, also called Sea hawk, river hawk or fish hawk, is a diurnal, fish-eating bird of prey with a cosmopolitan range. It is a large raptor, reaching more than 60 cm (24 in) in length and 180 cm (71 in) across the wings. It is brown on the upperparts and predominantly greyish on the head and underparts.
The osprey tolerates a wide variety of habitats, nesting in any location near a body of water providing an adequate food supply. It is found on all continents except Antarctica, although in South America it occurs only as a non-breeding migrant.
This is the subspecies P. haliaetus ridgwayi – Maynard, 1887: Caribbean islands. This form has a very pale head and breast compared with nominate haliaetus, with only a weak eye mask. It is non-migratory. Its scientific name commemorates American ornithologist Robert Ridgway.

A pair of specially-marked EA-6B Prowlers from VMAQ-2 makes a low approach at MCAS Yuma after a sortie in support of Weapons and Tactics Instructor course 2-17. This has been confirmed to be the last such course VMAQ-4 will support before standing down this summer.
Bittersweet shot for me, as I'm a huge fan of the Prowler, and I've always been particularly fond of VMAQ-4's squadron markings.

The 2018 Osprey Project in New Jersey:
www.conservewildlifenj.org/downloads/cwnj_853.pdf
Ospreys continue to thrive in New Jersey. Nest surveys conducted by volunteers during the peak of the nestling period (late June-early July) resulted in documenting the outcome of 87% of 589 surveyed nests. We credit the successful work by our dedicated volunteers and faithful “Osprey Watchers” to report on nests all along the coast and major rivers. The goal of this project is to monitor and manage the state population of breeding ospreys to ensure they remain stable in New Jersey. We hope that the work conducted as a part of this project will help protect the species while closely monitoring for any indication of emerging threats.
