Seen today!!!!


We seen this out at the strip pit are...only the second osprey I have ever seen.



It was quite a distance away so I zoomed in with my little point & shoot camera.  For some reason it kept looking the other way.


It was eating something but I could not tell what.



I know this is  photo overload....


Just click and expand the view and get a better view.

    NOT photo overload for such an awesome and fierce sight! What a find! GREAT shots!! I think my favorite is two, because of how it showcases his fabulous beak!!

    I don't think I have ever seen an Osprey, unless I did and didn't know it. These are great pictures.

    We were in Marion yesterday. I was amazed that a two hour drive south and flowers that are barely out of the ground at my house were in full bloom there.

    Rose, I love bird watching. I don't ever see the Osprey here where I live in California. Love the white feathers on its head and belly. : )

    I am lucky enough to watch ospreys fishing on the small lake where my cabin is, but I have never seen one this close. Beautiful pictures!
