About this new snags post
Following the snags video I posted earlier in April (2026), this video shows more completely the bird-life that snags make possible. It features one osprey in a very tall snag in Flagstaff Arizona.
The video comes right below this introduction. Below THAT I provide 5 photos that clarify even more the relationship between snags and ospreys.
I end this post with links to other parts of my site that you might enjoy.

1) Osprey on leaning snag, Bubbling Ponds, Page Springs, Arizona
2) Digital art, creating composite o f snag and osprey made semi-transparent
3) The tallest snag I know of, at least in Flagstaff— near Walnut Canyon Ponds—home to the ospreys in photos 4 and 5.
4) Eyrie with adult during long construction period, taking off (probably to fetch more sticks for the nest)
5) Same adult osprey launching off after a construction session.
