Osprey

[BlackSheep]

My favorite Raptor!
My brother and I were fishing in a river off the Magothy early one morning when an Osprey hit a power line-needless to say it plunged into the river. We hit the motor and got to it ASAP-no luck, it was dead. I took the opportunity to look at it closely-what a majestic creature.
Thanks for the beautiful pix’s.!

Wonderful pics, Dead Eye. Great you can get so close, I guess they are somewhat "human tolerant" ?

Yes somewhat tolerant and bloody long lens too. www.ospreyapplications.com/fd.zip

Good grief! That lens doesn't look cheap.
