Does This Qualify as a Log Cabin?

This Osprey nest along Delta Ponds seems to be large enough to accommodate a large family with two or three offspring. But can we classify it as a log cabin? Interestingly, across the road from the nest is an apartment complex. Those on the second floor would have a great view of the nest.

I hope it's more comfy on the inside than it looks from the outside. ;-)

Definitely! Great capture of this amazing bird. V

Reminiscent of the stork nests in eastern France and parts of Germany, which are on man-made platforms or chimneys on the tops of buildings - e.g. http://www.pbase.com/chrisg_62/image/157629520

Nice shot Vern. Get to know the people in the apartment and maybe get a shot looking down on the nest. LOL

They are crafty along with eagles and beaver.

I love how the Osprey is looking up so the eye catches the light. Yes, quite a large nest.
