Reviews
For those of us living on the Chesapeake Bay, St. Patrick's Day isn't just about wearing green and perhaps enjoying a pint. It's also the day to start listening for the distinctive call of our beloved ospreys, who have journeyed back from South America to give us another summer of enjoyment. If you liked "Inside a Bald Eagle's Nest", you'll want to reach for Gorrow and Koppie's second collaboration which chronicles the osprey. Like the bald eagle, osprey were once nearly eradicated due to the chemical DDT, but thanks to the hard work and dedication of conservationists, they have made a comeback. For us, these raptors are conservation success stories, and a motivation for our work. Please join us in celebrating these majestic birds with "Inside an Osprey's Nest". You can see many of these ambassadors to the Chesapeake on your next visit to the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail. -Joel Dunn, President and CEO, Chesapeake Conservancy
