    Default Missing a WIG anyone?

    Local Florida osprey returning to spruce up nest with some moss. Taken from boat North of Venice Florida on the Intra-Coastal Waterway. These birds have quite a wing span. Always enjoy the show they put on.

    Thanks for looking.

    I am so sad not to see a struggleling fish in its nails.

    you must be quite close to this bird to photograph it with a 200mm lens. That's a dream for me! I love the wingspread.

    Excellent action capture. I would prefer a touch more space around the wingtips.

    I had to open this, because knowing you I was afraid it was a real wig :D

    Impressive wingspan and pose, the nesting is the icing in the cake.

    Great caption too ;)
