Everything you need to know about this live stream
A Front-Row Seat to Osprey Life
This camera frames a single osprey nest built atop a nesting platform on the shore of Lake Arthur. The osprey, often called the fish hawk, stalks its prey by hovering above open water before diving feet-first to snatch fish, making this lakeside vantage an ideal home for the species.
Lake Arthur and Moraine State Park
The nest overlooks Lake Arthur, the centerpiece of Moraine State Park in western Pennsylvania. The surrounding impoundment and its healthy fish population support one of the region's most significant clusters of osprey nests, drawing the raptors back year after year.
A Conservation Success Story
The nest is part of a long-running osprey reintroduction effort at the park, a program that has helped a once-struggling species rebuild its numbers. The live view lets you follow the recovery of these magnificent raptors from feeding to fledging across the season.
