I have always been amazed at what the Osprey bring to the nest, I've seen pieces of blue and orange tarp and even a scarf one year. This year I could see fishing line, hook and sinker dangling from the nest...making me wonder what was not visible inside the nest ?

Following the chick rescue Aug. 9th. concerns were made to Jim Duncan at MB. Sustainable Development ( Conservation ) about my findings and hoped they could help out ? He told me that " He was working on it ".
This was great news to hear and thought that during the fall or winter at some point the nest would be cleaned up for next year. Little did I know just how fast this would happen.

Aug 19th. " Operation Nest Clean-up " was underway with the help from Manitoba Hydro ( Gimli ) Jim accessed the nest in a lift truck.
The collection of debris removed included fishing line, hook, sinker, baling twine, pieces of tarp, fishing gill net, articles of clothing, one sock and a rock.

Since this was only one nest I'm sure others sites will have the same sort of debris.
