    Default Ospreys Part Deux

    Well, the last day of low tides and I failed at getting the 'catch' shot. This time I was too ambitious filling the frame and cut off the wings!! Managed to get this post catch action tho...




    However...it's funny how things work! Instead of the Osprey catching shot, the birding gods offered a much more elusive opportunity!! The last shot isn't so hot, but for what it is, I'll take it! Oh yah, it's a Belted Kingfisher.











    Thanks for lookin...
