Moorings Park Osprey: Ruffie fledged and returned 5/18/24 [View all]
May 18, 2024
At 58 days of age, the oldest sibling, Ruffie, flew for the first time in her life. After Ruffie takes off, watch younger brother, Tuffy, and Mom, Sally, as their gaze follows Ruffie's flight. Ruffie is up there flying around in circles and having a grand ol' time! And, I think Ruffie is heard saying: "Hey Mommy and Tuffy, look at me!" Eighteen minutes after fledging, Ruffie sticks the landing back on the nest. Great job, Ruffie!
