Upon arrival Papa could be seen flying over head with a fish in his talons. He flew to the nest and would land for only a moment before taking off again. This was the first time I had seen this behavior. We realized he was taunting his offspring to come chase him for their meal. They met his challenge and with all the awkwardness of a toddler learning to walk, they took off for the skies.

Excellent photo!
He's so handsome! I love the water in the background. Did you get to shoot the babies?
We saw some osprey on vacation, but I couldn't get through the brambles and wetlands to get a close up. That's when I'd love a 400 or 600!
