Their nests can cause power outages and fires when sticks interfere with electrical equipment.<\/p>\n<p>This was the case in April 2000 when an osprey pair attempted to build a nest on Cowlitz PUD&#8217;s distribution pole. Our line crews deemed this a safety risk for the public and for the osprey, so we designed and built an alternate higher nesting platform, near the same pole where they originally tried to build a nest.<\/p>\n<p>The ospreys accepted the alternate nesting platform and for 15 years, a pair has been returning to their summer home in Cowlitz County. We look forward to their arrival this spring and are excited to launch, a live video feed that will allow viewers to observe these wild birds in their natural environment.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions please email us at <a href=\"mailto:ospreycam@cowlitzpud.org\">ospreycam@cowlitzpud.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The OspreyCam is online!
