Iris is so beautiful. Hoping she finds a new mate this season. Thanks for the video. I don't do Facebook, so I appreciate any videos of this lovely Osprey.
🦜for those wondering about Iris ~ she's is now considered the oldest Osprey in the world. Estimated to be around 26-27 yrs young 😊. She got her name because of her distinct spots on her eyes (the iris) 👀✨✨ - esp the left, which makes it easy to know it's her. To me they actually appear like gold specs when there's a closeup and sun 🌞 is on her 🌼💕 she's is amazingly beautiful!
@@robinjenkins947 if I recall reading, I can tell you she's had 4 mates and has outlived 3. Believe it or not she has laid around 30 eggs, not all made it, that's another story and a sad one 🙁.. if you don't have a dedicated partner, then it makes it much harder to feed yourself and the offsprings 😶 I started watching when Stanley was around ✌️
Such a relaxing video. Ospreys are beautiful. Those huge talons probably do a big part in gripping and holding fish while flying and during capture. I never knew the dark feathers on an osprey's wings and back are a dark coffee-like brown.
Is pretty Iris still without a mate? She’s been solo for quite a while. Is there a shortage of male ospreys, or what? Those talons are magnificent! Thanks for the close up view ♥️
She's beautiful. An older lady but so regal and strong. After losing Harriet the eagle, it was so nice to see Iris. My daughter's middle name is Iris. It means 🌈.

Thank you! How long has she used the nest at Hellgate? How many years did she raise chicks?

She is such a rock star.... this is one of the first bird nest cams I started watching so long ago, I miss Stanley!
@@mars54mars54 Iris is my #1 🥰 Osprey. When Stanley didn't returned, I went into stress mode 🙍♀️

When I was watching yesterday, there was a male perched on the wood while Iris was in the nest. And then there was mating!
Beautiful!
Sweet face! 💖💖💖
So glad to see Iris back and may be a mate. Hopefully this works out good anyhow enjoy just seeing her. Thanks for doing what you do.

♡ Beautiful sweet Iris. Now that Mrs. G. passed away, Iris is the oldest osprey on cam that we know of.
👏👏Queen Iris

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💙🤗
Is pretty Iris still without a mate?
She’s been solo for quite a while. Is there a shortage of male ospreys, or what?
Those talons are magnificent!
Thanks for the close up view ♥️
Yes, Louis. He also mates with Starr a little further away. Hoping he is more faithful to Iris this season.
Where is this? Very nice video. Those talons!
Iris , your so beautiful, ❤️
This morning iris is calling. Has Louis been around yet?
She's beautiful. An older lady but so regal and strong. After losing Harriet the eagle, it was so nice to see Iris. My daughter's middle name is Iris. It means 🌈.
Such a lovely lady.❤ Any suitors yet? (Poor Iris...)
Yes, Louis. He also mates with Starr a little further away. Hoping he is more faithful to Iris this season.
@@marymonson905 Louis has been around this year? Any mating? Hmm, he didn't have a very good record last year.
@@TinkerTailor4303 Yes, I saw them mating in April 2023. Only time will tell how loyal he will be this season. I hope the best for Iris.
@@marymonson905 Absolutely!
Please drop that damn Luis.. He's a deeadbeat. Poor Iris just can't drop him. This is a sad trailer park tale.
What a beauty Iris is. It was fantastic being able to see close ups of her eyes, beak, feet and feathers. she looks so young. any idea her age?
How old is Iris?
She's so pretty,does she have a mate?
Yes, Louis. He also mates with Starr a little further away. Hoping he is more faithful to Iris this season.
Does anyone think Iris is as depressed as I am that she has no mate?
She's beautiful.
