The Osprey are back nesting on our place. 
I have some more pictures I will share in a few days.

This adult Osprey was lifting its wings to enjoy the breeze off the York River.
Last year, they would fly away when I walked down the driveway. Now, they don't pay much attention to me, so I can sit down behind some grasses where I can observe and take pictures.

Update: These were taken in early April. They now have chicks in the nest!
