The Osprey is a news site based in Shoreline, Wash., focused first on news in Shoreline, as well as our neighbors to the north, south, east and (sometimes) west. We started in October 2025 with an idea: If we’ve got a question about something in our town, we’re sure that other people do too.
I’m David Mendez, your friendly neighborhood newsman and Shoreline resident. I’m a reporter by trade — I’ve worked in small towns and big cities, and I’ve covered everything from chalk art festivals to waterfront development to national elections. I love writing about the community I live in and the people who live there, and that love is central to The Osprey.
We’re working to cover city council decisions, school board meetings, local elections, neighborhood events, local businesses and the people who make up our town — and anything else that we think is interesting.
Please feel welcome to email me with story ideas, questions, comments or letters to the editor at [email protected].
This is our community, I’m just here to write about it.
