Intro
Osprey are a fish-eating bird. So, what are they doing at Mono Lake, a naturally fishless hyper-saline lakelocated on the east side of the Sierra Nevada in California? And what is the connection to the Morro Coast Audubon Society? Find out as Lisa Fields shares her passion for Osprey, and this population in particular. She will speak about general Osprey ecology, describe the Mono Lake ecosystem, share details about the Osprey nesting at Mono Lake, and what research and citizen science has revealed about unexpected movements.
