Cape Cod Bird Club Monthly Meeting
“Osprey – Egg Incubation, Chick Rearing and Wild Fostering

Speaker: Stephanie Ellis of Wild Care

In 2023, Wild Care’s Executive Director Stephanie Ellis, was tasked with incubating two sets of Osprey eggs (from USDA), raising the chicks and finding them suitable wild foster nests. In 2024, Stephanie took a new strategy and placed Osprey eggs into active nests. Stephanie will discuss this intensive processes along with successes and challenges. She will also touch upon the history of Osprey on Cape Cod, a true conservation success story, and the legalities involved in working with Osprey nests, eggs and chicks. Two of the hatched Osprey chicks were placed into the Osprey nest at Cape Cod Museum of Natural History. (Photo: Kerry Reid)
