Osprey - Bird Photo
This is why I carry a camera at all times. I was on the oil tanker Great
Eastern and the captain said there was a large bird on the ship. This Osprey has been buzzing the line handlers and boom boats. The other day she had a fish and it was a great sight to see. Yesterday she let us get up close to see how beautiful she is. She roosted there for over an hour for her photo shoot. Mark |

We live by a lake in Canada and have an Osprey that fishes off a dead branch high up in an old ash - truly amazing to watch - over the years we've taken many photos of him, but nothing as close as yours - the hubby will be jealous when I show him this.. ) Thanks for sharing it, Mark... seph |

Nothing fancy but wondered if you thought it ok. Nice bird and great shot. |

Mark You are very, very lucky Last weekend I watched as two ospreys tried to scoop fish from the south marsh at Iona Beach. My camera was simply inadequate to the task of capturing the image, and the guys all around me were getting antsy too - and they had 600mm lens, tripods and way more expenmsive cameras. In fact I ended up taking pictures of them! http://www.flickr.com/photos/stephen_rees/529164697/ |
