Ospreys Choose Taller Perch At Iowa Nuclear Plant
Osprey parents at Duane Arnold Nuclear Station chose a 165 foot high meteorological tower for their chick, bypassing nests on nearby platforms. Technicians from NextEra captured the 42 day old hatchling for banding as the birds favor high perches away from trees. In 2007 the same pair raised three chicks at Wickiup Hill before a storm killed them.
