    These are all very, very good. I like the double herons, and oddly enough, I think my favorite is the one where you can't see the face... the osprey landing. All of them are quite nice though.

    Great series
    These are really top notch. Very technically sound, but also give us a good idea of this osprey's "personality" .clap.gif

    Awesome shots! I live in Huntersville - I've seen ospreys flying around while I was of course driving, or otherwise without my camera. Would you be willing to share where these were taken?

    Great work. It is nice to see great shots from places that are so close to my home. I especially liked the herons. Were they nesting?
