Great chase series, Shalu. So tell, us, was there any interaction between the two?

Nicely done Mike, they aren't swallows but are plenty speedy.

The interesting thing about them Bill is; the older I get, the faster they fly.  :p

Great sequence Shalu, but the suspense is killing me. Here's what I think. I believe the osprey just wanted to put the fear of God in that cormorant by buzzing him, and scarring him half to death. :eek: I've noticed that the osprey doesn't even look down at the cormorant. Hopefully we'll get the season's finale tomorrow. I'm betting that the cormorant gets out of this mess unscathed. :lol:
