Okay, I have to admit that as an Osprey aircraft person I thought this thread was about the plane. The pics of the real Osprey are amazing. Thank you for sharing them.

Funny story about osprey .. both kinds. I was at the DOD Joint Open House Airshow last year at Andrews AFB taking pics. We were waiting for the V-22 Osprey flyby and demo when the announcer came on and said the Navy was not able to provide an osprey for the show. Looked up at that very moment and noticed there was a bird osprey flying above the crowd and started laguhing my &*^ off thinking the Navy is sooooooo cheap :)

Kurt and Inkpen, I heard over the weekend that Osprey are building a nest at the Benedict Marina, people were sitting in the bar watching (them?) carry the sticks in.

I remember there being a platform or two when I was over there a couple of months ago while taking pics of the Chalk Point power plant. That's cool!
