How do ospreys make there nest?

Ospreys build their nests using a variety of materials, including sticks, seaweed, and other debris, often incorporating items found near their nesting sites. They typically choose elevated locations, such as tall trees, cliffs, or man-made structures, to provide safety from predators. The female osprey plays a significant role in shaping the nest, while both parents contribute to its construction and maintenance. Nests can become quite large over time, with some reaching several feet in diameter.
