I know the sun, stars, & moon are now aligned for the BG to be on their spawning beds.

Last night almost no BG showed up when I threw feed. Those very few that did seemed small. There has been fewer showing up each night for the past week. I thought it might be the presence of the osprey & his taking one of the group almost every night for dinner.

Is it normal to have a significant decrease in the numbers at the chow line because they are off doing other things?
