After a frightening fall of about 15 metres, a juvenile osprey has been successfully returned to its nest high above the Western Stevedoring terminal dock in Cowichan Bay, thanks to workers from Pacific Industrial & Marine Ltd. and The Raptors in Duncan.

The Raptors was notified of a distressed, possibly injured osprey that had fallen from its nest on Sept. 8.

With support from Western Stevedoring and PIM, a 香蕉视频直播渃herry- picker香蕉视频直播� hydraulic lift was brought in.

Two staff members from The Raptors captured the wayward fowl and then used the hydraulic lift to place the young bird back into its nest high atop a light pole.

香蕉视频直播淚t was a real morale boost for everyone working out on the terminal to know that the osprey family was back together. I want to thank Gillian Ratcliffe and everyone at The Raptor Centre for their assistance and advice.香蕉视频直播�

Ospreys prefer nests with a commanding view of nearby fish-bearing waters, and are known to build very large nests in precarious positions.
