June 7, 2023 - Two osprey perched in their nest atop a marshalling area sign in front of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida . In the background is the NASA meatball. The center shares a border with the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. The osprey, also called sea hawk, river hawk, and fish hawk, is a diurnal, fish-eating bird of prey with a cosmopolitan range. It is a large raptor, reaching more than 2 feet in length and 6 feet across the wings. More than 330 native and migratory bird species, along with 65 amphibian and reptile species, call Kennedy and the wildlife refuge home.
