to clear your view. I just use a handsaw on bamboo that is about 15+ feet tall.

Isn't the male Osprey expected to make gifts of fresh fish to his mate? Then he might have to search for fresh branches, while she searches for clumps of grasses for the nest. That might explain all the flybys you are seeing.
