Osprey in flight - a photo on Flickriver

Osprey in flight

            I recently had an amazing experience over two days at Blue Cypress Lake, the largest nesting osprey colony in the world. I have so many great photos of this majestic bird that it is hard to choose just a few to publish.

Ospreys, also known as sea hawks, live on fish they capture diving feet first into water. This bird would take off with its half eaten fish into the air from its nest, swoop around a few times and then get back to the nest again with the same fish to feed its chicks.

Thank you very much for the views, faves and comments.
