Woops, Wrong Nest

[Michael Pancier]

It was a real osprey show this morning at Flamingo. This osprey seemed to bring some nesting material to an already occupied nest. He was chased away, but the two osprey in the nest used it. Strange day.

Fantastic shot and very interesting behavior. I've never read about something like this. Perfect wing pose. The twig is great and the other two ospreys looking at the intruder are also wonderful. A really awesome Osprey shot.

Beautiful image, sharp as a tack. I would crop a little differently, putting less room on the right and more on the left. well done.

Like the image and the story a lot. The image has a yellow color cast. I corrected it with about a 60% Average Blur Color Balance as taught to me by Robert O'Toole.
