[cayugabirds-l] How close to one another will Ospreys nest?

I noticed that an Osprey platform has been installed on the hill above Myers Point. There are already two nests in the area, the first on a pole within the Cargill mining complex at Portland Point, which Robin Bailey's husband Paul (whose last name I forget, sorry), who works with NYSEG, provided
