osprey
Tagreturn!
The ospreys have returned!
This is a female and her catch; her mate was fishing too.
It is a long migration flight for them – North Carolina to South America twice a year.
invitation
That is a whole lot of bright blue sky inviting the young osprey to dive right into the morning’s fishing.
migration thoughts
Young osprey about ready for his first migration in a couple of weeks – some go all the way to South America.
seeking marauders
Almost as important as eyes looking down for fish,
is the osprey’s eyes sweeping upward, scanning for a marauding eagle.
different emphasis
This immature osprey has taken life in order to live…the fish is food and a blessing. Can you perhaps hear the osprey saying “thank you”?
