Hello Mike, these captures are insanely amazing. These have got to be the best osprey shots I have seen. Just wondering how far you were from the osprey?

Thanks.

Thank you! I'm not sure but if I had to guess I would say approximately 50 yards or so. I'll be back out there tomorrow so I'll try to gauge it a little better and report back if that is off.

Thanks! That is a great video. They really are unique and magnificent birds of prey and luckily for all of us they are on every continent except Antarctica.

Nothing as dramatic as the Osprey from Candor (I'm still in awe!), but I'll settle for the herons and the gulls for now :-)

Nice shot, Bjarne. We haven't heard a cuckoo yet here, unfortunately, but, then, we are quite a way from where their favourite hosts like reed warblers and pipits nest.

Nice of this guy to come off his perch in my direction. Tough day lighting wise with whitish grey skies.
