Description
Every spring the alewives return to the fresh water of Maine to spawn. They are a member of the herring family and spend the majority of their lives in the ocean. As they make their return, the osprey are waiting for a fresh meal. The osprey will dive into the water to catch the alewives as they make their way to fresh water. Eagles are also seen along these waterways and sometimes will fight the osprey for a fresh catch.
