I photographed this female Osprey diving in to grab a stick for the nest. The nest was already built, but I guess it was for repairs. I shot this series earlier this Summer, but have been busy with work. I liked the out-stretched talons and the look of concentration as it was going after something. Canon 7D, 400mm f/4 DO lens, Canon 1.4x Series III Teleconverter.
The Osprey kept picking up sticks for a while, returning to the nest, where there were a few chicks.
Absolutely beautiful captures! I truly enjoyed this post.
Thanks! They are fun to watch!
I know…I’ve been watching ospreys on and off for a couple of years now.
What a wonderful sequence with this industrious and productive osprey!
Thanks!. I liked this series because she was going after a stick!
