Pearson Pilings has teamed up with Mass Audubon and Mass Audubon Allens Pond to provide an all-composite platform for osprey nests.
Another nesting pair of osprey was able to make its home in the marshes of Allens Pond Wildlife Sanctuary, Westport, MA thanks to a unique, all-composite nesting platform provided by Pearson Pilings. Pearson donated the platform to the Massachusetts Audubon’s South Coast Osprey Project and two other southeastern New England conservancy groups, Rhode Island’s Barrington Land Trust and the Conservation Commission of Warren.
Pearson Pilings’ new all-composite Osprey Pad integrates with their signature fiberglass piling to create a long lasting, non-polluting alternative to a typical wooden structure. A single piece of molded fiberglass grating forms the horizontal nesting surface, with angled sides for nest stability. Held securely in place with bolted brackets and locking hardware, the platform resists wind and weather damage. An optional perch mounts to a corner and rises 17-inches above the platform.
