Osprey in flight.....

Osprey (Pandion haliaetus)

Went back today and finally got my osprey I have been stalking. He was on the same perch as yesterday, so I just hung out by the pond watching, and he finally decided to go look for some food. He circled several times, before finally settling in a tree wayyyy across the way. Before he did I managed a couple of shots.

One disclaimer, central Florida this time of year has no clouds or color to the sky, and it was plain boring, so I did add the sky behind him. If that is unacceptable please let me know and I will proceed accordingly.

Here are a few more on Flickr...
