I love it when the osprey come back to the pacific north west, there are a couple of nests close enough to my office to get out and see them over lunch.











These were all taken with a Nikon D80 and Sigma 150-500mm lens.

Cool stuff John, good to see your work again!

Beautiful!

I like that second one best, John, with the bird seeming to look over its shoulder. Thanks for sharing with us again.

Very nice, I need a bigger lens

Very nice John!

Thanks everyone. They're a fun bird to shoot with some interesting behaviors. For example after they catch a fish they always turn the fish head forward when flying, more aerodynamic that way I suppose. It makes them look like a torpedo bomber.

holy!! those are superb images!! I saw one while in BC recently, but nowhere do they compare to these!! very nice work!!!
