Osprey at nest

[Alfred Forns]

At Flamingo in Everglades National Park the Ospreys have started nesting. As far as I could tell there were three nets you could photograph, one of them only had one bird but he was working hard !!!

Not perfect conditions today but had fun with the birds ... also spotted two juvi eagles in the park !!

Comments welcome and much appreciated

Great wing position in the male and soft diffused light, clouds help with a tough EXP.
Well done, I missed this interaction going after the Kestrel :(

Al, as Fabs stated, the wing position on the male makes this. Great timing of a little afternoon delight:D.

Very nice image Al.

Great blues are getting ready at wako. Two pairs already started nest building and 3 more new arrivals. looks like we are going to have a good year.

Good sharp detail Al, and like the extended wing. You could do this as a vertical too, but would lose some of the nest.

Great interactions Al, nice and sharp the raised wing position gives this a nice touch.
