Did You Know?
Osprey are a predatory hawk, also known as a "fish hawk" because of their fondness for eating fish. They came close to extinction in the 1960's as a result of the irresponsible use of DDT. The DDT would effect the brooding females eggs, often making them so soft that they would break under the weight of the mother. It took Rachel Carson in her book "Silent Spring" to bring national attention to the effects that DDT was having on the food chain. The pesticide was outlawed and the Osprey have made a remarkable recovery. All is not well though. Osprey are migratory and during the winter they fly to South America where DDT is still commonly used in the farming business
