Osprey

[Joseph Przybyla]

Out to Circle B Bar Reserve this morning. The birds are beginning to trickle in. I found this accommodating Osprey and a juvenile still hanging out with the adult. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Nice view of this osprey. The perch is nice and the calling pose. The head looks a little soft.

Interesting open Bill pose, but I think the head looks soft.

Yes, the wings look sharper than the face. You did well considering that the sun was high in the sky.

with love,

Thanks everybody for viewing and commenting, very much appreciated. Trying to make lemonade from lemons. When the birds are few far away birds and big crops seem to rule the day.
