Ospreys make the most annoying sounds in all of Birddom. Poor owl having to listen to all that racket! It's all going to hell in a hand-basket with a nest in it and a bunch of osplets to get eaten by superior raptors and snakes, raccoons and foxes, and coyotes.

Great footage! Life in the wild is not always "warm & fuzzy". I too was disappointed at the Ospreys inability to fight off this attack. A biologist friend advised me that the Great Horned Owl is an apex predator with a serious advantage at night. Osprey defend best by "Stooping", diving towards their predators and "buzzing" or even hitting them. However, they do not have the night vision to do any serious "Stooping" and the owls are used to birds harassing them (night and day). Terrible for the Osprey, but if MPF could get a camera on the owl nest, it would be nice to see the owl chicks getting fed.

Mom did everything she could to drive the owl away. She has no night vision and also has little experience with attacking anything but fish. She came into the nest, she flew at the owl, she even struck it when it returned. Unfortunately, it's difficult to defend against the night's expert hunter.
