These aren't up to the standards of the resident "Osprey Whisperer", but I like them...


I went Osprey "hunting", and got some great shots...caught this guys coming home with a small fish, which the female then grabbed and flew around with before feeding the little ones...

Momma took it and flew off with it...

She rips off a piece of the fish, which was still flapping its tail!

And passes it to the little one, over and over again...

A great catch for the Osprey family, and a great "catch" for me too!

    Great catches however the last one was sized a little big in comparison.
