One of the best places in the Naples, Florida area for birding is Eagle Lakes Community Park. The park is located along Route 41 (Tamiami Trail E) about 1/2 mile west of its intersection with Collier Boulevard (C.R. 951). There are three mitigation impoundments in the park which abound with birds.
Just beyond the parking lots and between two sport's fields is a high lampost on which ospreys have built a nest. Here are some photos of these ospreys.
THE 4 PHOTOS ABOVE SHOW THE OSPREY (PROBABLY THE MALE) EATING A FISH. GENERALLY THE MALE OSPREY WILL ONLY EAT THE HEAD; THE REST IT GIVES TO ITS MATE & CHICKS. |
