FeatheredFirday // Fish Friday

Stopped at Indian Island park to see if I could spot some Osprey. Got a few distant pictures of two flying back to their nest with some large fish in their talons.

Had to crop them to see.

Great shots. I always feel sorry for the prey but it's nature isn't it?

Always better to be the hammer than the nail ...

Good way of putting it 😃

That is a big fish. Well spotted!

Even from the distance you could see it...

Sweet! You got to see a special moment and capture it, great job Mike.

Thanks to the 70-300 mm telephoto ...I could just make out with the naked eye they had fish...

Amazing shots!

Thanks to photo-shop :-)

Very lucky shots!! Good timing too!
Poor fish! But he’s feeding a whole family of birds.

Oh yeah soups on... If I lived nearby I could get tons of pictures....

What a great capture! The angle of the shot shows off the fish perfectly. They are amazing birds.
That for posting this to #featheredfriday!

I was trying to snap with a good wing spread. Got lucky. Thanks @melinga010100

Wow great shots!!!

Both of you got a awesome catch!! :-)
