Osprey With Nesting Material

[Joseph Przybyla]

I captured this image Monday at Ft. Desoto County Park in Pinellas County, Florida. I was walking to the north beach along a path when this Osprey came from the shore gliding over my head. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

I like the composition, wing tips, eye contact, sharpness and nesting material adds interest. Excellent image Joe!
