MILFORD, Mich. (WJBK) - The reintroduction program of Ospreys to Michigan's southern Lower Peninsula has been very successful. Barb Jensen, the Michigan Osprey Program Coordinator, tells us their goal was to have 30 nesting pairs by 2020 -- and they reached that goal in 2010.

You can see the birds at Kensington Metropark. You don't need a thousand dollar camera lens to watch these birds, because the excited group known as The Osprey Papparazzi will be glad to let you use theirs. 

FOX 2's Derek Kevra takes us there to get up close and personal with the birds and their fan club.
