It was a lovely day on the barrier island, and osprey life was going well. At around noon, Edie took off to go fishing. We were horrified to see her dive for a fish only to get caught up in fishing line. Edie was dragged through the water behind a fishing boat. Oh, our hearts sank. We were so very worried for Edie all afternoon, and we feared the worst. Then, seven hours later Edie landed in the nest with a fish for her kids! There was no sign of fishing line. We were elated, and so thankful that somehow Edie managed to free herself from the fishing line entanglement. Whew! Ospreys sure have a tough life!
Update: Information was provided to inform us that the fishermen cut the line to free Edie.
This is an osprey nest on Captiva Island, Florida.
