The osprey fledgling was on a branch about 50 feet above me on a tree only 30 feet away. When an osprey is that close to the water and they spot a fish, they tilt over and drop almost straight down, like a falling rock. You get to see just what I got to see … and I was so close that my long lens couldn’t frame all of the osprey for the complete dive. Whew!
Zoom! That’s a fine example of single-minded pursuit…..

WELL!!!! OOOPS!! Now the osprey is clean for dinner when it gets some. Great to see the play by play.
