A local artist tells Castanet that he was walking on the shore when he made the discovery. “I was just walking along the waterfront looking for driftwood to make some art when I saw what looks like a hawk or Osprey, just dead in the water,” says James Cox. “Not what you expect to see, maybe a dead fish or two, but nothing like that,” he added. The South Okanagan Research Center says ospreys are not endangered and are fairly abundant in the Okanagan and without examining the body they would have no idea how or why the bird may have died. The City of Kelowna has a dedicated online tool for reporting dead animals. The bird has since been removed.
