Federal offense to remove an osprey nest........ Hopefully, a few sticks on your bimini doesn't count! I had this same problem when I lived on the Magothy. Only solution was to provide them with a better place to nest. You need something higher with a platform suitable for nesting.

The plastic deer netting will work perfectly.........Gary

Use a radio and play some heavy metal music. Place it in the helm area for a day or two it should spook them and they will move on to a quieter more suitable nest site.

I agree with Shawn, make them a better place to nest. It will be cool to watch the chick grow and eventually leave the nest.

There was a goose nesting in an Osprey nest on a channel marker in Selby Bay last year. Wonder if she knew it was illegal!! Must be a tough goose!...........Gary
