NEWS & UPDATES


The inaugural year of the Osprey Cam was a tremendous success. Thanks to all our dedicated observers and volunteers. Click here to read the Season Wrap-Up.

Although the chicks have fledged and flown off, the Osprey Cam will remain operational into October. We will try to have a "leaf cam" so viewers can watch the autumn colors bloom on Long Island. Stay tuned.

Visit the Friends of Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge Web site, an important home of the ospreys.

The Dennis Puleston Osprey Fund will encourage research about ospreys on Long Island, improve their nesting opportunities and educate the public about them. The Fund recognizes that for ospreys to be successful they must have a viable and healthy habitat in which to live, an objective that Dennis clearly understood and supported.
