I work on the water and love osprays but I've still never seen one take a fish as big as that last one! The bald eagle population is skyrocketing and I always see them harrassing the osprays and stealing the fish they catch. Our national bird is an aggressive Vulture.
Seldom a year goes by where I don't see an Osprey swoop down and pull a fish out of the Pocomoke River. Then they'll fly up to a bald Cyprus tree, perch on a branch, and eat the live meal. Awesome predatory birds. I've seen Eagles fish in the river, the same way.

ReplyDeleteI went fishing one day and wasn't catching anything and an osprey swooped down right in front of me and caught a fish. Really a neat sight.
