'''Ospreys''' are relatively small birds of prey that can be hunted as a source of food. They will not attack your Dwarves, and, in any case, are too small to do much damage. They can be tamed and used for egglaying, but, because they lay relatively few eggs per clutch, you're better of to butcher them.

Note that some content may still need to be updated.
A small bird of prey with black markings on its eyes. It hunts near bodies of water.

Ospreys are a species of bird who can be found in water-heavy biomes such as oceans, lakes, rivers and marshes, where they spawn individually. Despite being carnivorous, they are benign and under half the size of a cat, doing nothing but fly across the area aimlessly, proving no threat to a dwarf whatsoever. All ospreys are born with Legendary skill in climbing.

Ospreys can be captured in cage traps and trained into cheap exotic pets. They produce a tiny amount of returns when butchered and lay an average of 3 eggs at a time, making them poor choices for livestock.

Some dwarves like ospreys for their fishing ability.

Admired for its fishing ability.
