Oooo, nice pics!

One would think that a fish with mouth agape would cause drag for that osprey though ... heh ... guess it don't mind on an empty belly.

Thanks all for your comments. My wife commented that the babies that the Osprey
was going to feed are very lucky.

Thanks Dennis, Phil, dwp and ck. I've only seen Osprey around here 4 times in
the last 2 years, and this one came the closest. I was glad I had a camera with me.
