Here's a few from the past couple of days. I have found an area where there are four nesting pairs within couple of hundred yards of each other. There's an old youth league ball field that ospreys have built nests on top of the light poles. Theres a pond in front and a bayou behind, so I hope to get some fish catches this season.

Looking at the last one, it would be better to crop to have the osprey on the left side, or if it were looking towards the left would have been better too.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks!

    By the way, those that have a pair or two they visit regularly, will they get used to you?

    Nice collection. Numbers 3 and 4 are the best of the bunch to me. Hope you get some more soon.
