I'm seeing them often while they're working on the nest. I imagine I'll see them constantly once they get some eggs and chicks.
I'm beginning to think they're red-shouldered hawks.

One of the several eagle nests in my area that are used year after year to raise a new population of Bald Eagles. I'll be watching this one and hopefully documenting the event.
One of our native woodpecker. Not as colourful as other. Small and cute. This pair was nesting at Satay By The Bay.

What a special treat it was to see this natural nesting tree inhabited by the Hyacinth Macaws. One Macaw went into a hole on one side and came out the other. I didn't know the hole went right through the tree until he appeared on the other side and is posing here. Taken in South Pantanal, Brazil. Two more photos are in the comment box.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated

Two weeks ago, I began observing activity in an Osprey nest in Southeastern Ontario and witnessed a single nestling being attended by both parents. Female ospreys lay three to four eggs three days apart with hatching taking place in the same sequence. Upon my return to the nest site, I observed the previous chick had significantly grown in size if not in beauty. I took a few portraits of the single chick with its mother thinking that there might have been only a single nestling. However, sometime later a younger sibling popped up in the open and I now suspect a third, still younger chick might be laying out of view in the bottom of nest. Time will tell. The adult male was very busy making food deliveries to this Thousand Islands address, but also caught its breath and took a rest on his favorite snag limb some distance away before resuming its hunt for fish. Stay tuned for the next update.

Planckendael zoo.
Planckendael is a zoo, located on the grounds of Planckendael castle in the village district of Muizen, in Mechelen, Belgium. In 1956 the Royal Zoological Society of Antwerp (KMDA) bought the Planckendael estate in order to acquire a larger space for animals than what they owned: the city zoo in Antwerp.
Planckendael also has extensive leisure facilities: For children there is a large separate play area.
Under a shady canopy of ironwood trees, this young mōlī twosome begin establishing a life-long, monogamous pair bond. Laysan albatrosses with established pair bonds are the first of the season to arrive at the breeding colony. This pair arrived later and performed multiple elaborate courtship dances and even practiced nest building. It may take several seasons before they successfully mate and hatch an offspring.
