Went to spot on Saturday, Wow!! these birds really put on a show.

Watching these birds fish is a gift that I would pay to see, from the keen eye site, the graceful flight, to the dive bomb the catch and the shake is an awsome spectacle.

I love it when they shake the water off in flight, here's a few of what I'm talking about, some of you have been blessed to witness this live.

    From someone who is also an avid Osprey shooter, those shots rock!! Great detail in the wings etc in the first few and the action sequence is awesome! Everytime they go fishing its way out of sight from me so its good to see someones able to capture it!clap.gif
