10. I will be missing my daughter and grandson, who have been visiting this week and last. It will sort of be like the osprey this week as they leave the nest and learn to catch their own fish. I wonder if the adult osprey miss the young as we do? Anyway, my post is a quick link to watch the second young osprey fledge. She’s standing on the edge and flapping her wings, and even hovers…but she’s still there. http://mainelywrite.blogspot.com/2013/07/osprey-are-learning-to-fly.html
