Newspaper thief caught red taloned?
For the last several weeks, Charlotte Shore residents were upset that their home-delivered copies of the Pine Island Eagle were not waiting in their driveways each week. In fact, many of the papers began appearing on neighborhood roof tops, in gutters and on backyard lawns. Following a careful investigation of the area, the newspaper thief was discovered. On close inspection of this osprey nest, it would appear that not only is the Pine Island Eagle the best read paper by human island residents providing the latest in news and island information, but makes good nesting material as well.
