Nature Screen presents "Season of the Osprey"

An osprey, having just flown 4,000 miles from the east coast of South America, soars over a small salt marsh at the delta of the Connecticut River to the place that is imprinted on his memory from birth: the saltmarsh where he will rejoin his mate.

Foxes, deer, and scores of migrating shorebirds bring summer’s hustle and bustle back to the saltmarsh as the reunited pair mates and broods their eggs. Over the course of one summer, they fend off enemies, catch hundreds of fish, and raise their tiny chicks into the next generation of these consummate sea hawks. Narrated by Paul Giamatti.
