    First shot taken just after sunrise. Exciting to see that the Ospreys are still contstructing and working on their nests. Wishing this would last all summer....

    Hi Ken! I never get tired of seeing these birds! I believe there's too much dead space in the lower right of the image, might want to move the bird to the right of the frame a bit. Looks like it could benefit from some sharpening too.

    Exposure was nicely controlled!

    It looks like he ripped a perfectly good branch off of a tree! Usually you see them with dead branches. TFS!

    Nice wing pose and nesting material a big plus. Very well exposed too. I would sharpen the bird's face since it looks softer than the wings.

    Great timing Ken and a beautiful flight pose with excellent exposure. Really love the eye contact and of course the nesting material is definitely a bonus. Big congrats on this lovely image !!!!!!!

    Great pose with the nest material! I agree with above, and would also run some NR on the blue sky.

    Cool pose, light and eye contact, the nesting material adds to it. Did you by accident sharpen the BG instead of the bird? This image has great potential and I might also desaturate the sky a few points.
