Not the best shots by far, but my first shots of this great bird of prey. It was overcast, drizzling, windy and after 6 pm so not much in my favour. But I'll settle for these until I return for more in better conditions.

Nice catch Trevor. This bird is pretty rare, so any shot of them is good. :)

Good start, Trevor. I am in the same boat with Osprey images. My first round a couple of weeks back were terrible. Today's are better but still not great. It gives us something to work towards.

Well done on the capture.

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p

You're the man, Trevor. Great eye for spotting it and a great job of photographing it under those conditions. And it's nice to know there are still a few of them around here on the Island. Great work.

Thanks Shirley, I'm sure it or its relatives are nesting somewhere on the cliffs, since we have no buildings large enough for ledges. :D
