Ospreys who nested atop Brevard traffic pole safely moved



VIERA -- Florida
A family of ospreys that had built their nest on top of a traffic signal pole at a busy Brevard County intersection have been safely relocated.

They didn't fly the coop; they simply got a new home, county officials said.

The birds' nest was on top of a pole at the intersection of Stadium Parkway and Viera Boulevard, just north of Space Coast Stadium and Viera High School.

After waiting for the babies to get old enough -- and after getting special permits from state and federal agencies -- workers moved the nets to another, taller pole nearby.

Ospreys are known for building nests on manmade structures and causing damage.

The traffic signal would have been costly to replace, making the move necessary.
