Osprey nest has NOAA shipping for answers
WILDLIFE -- The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration usually is in the business of defending sea creatures, but last week it was asking for advice about getting rid of some, according to a KING 5 TV report.
Washington state law allows for the destruction or relocation of osprey nests under certain circumstances, as long as there are no eggs involved.
That gives NOAA oficials precious little time to deal with a nest an osprey pair is building in the upper structure of a NOAA ship that's scheduled to set sail in a few weeks.
