More Osprey Fun--Dinnertime!

 At 4:30 on this afternoon, the Ospreys were making quite a commotion
 One parent was on a piling (eating fish), another in a tree (eating fish) and two babies were off practicing their flying.
 But our little handful was in the nest having a teenage hissy-fit.
 This one doesn't seem to be moving along as quickly as its siblings...
 The upside of this state of affairs is:
 Food Delivery straight to the comfy nest  by mom and dad.
 Incoming, below: snapper? pompano?
 Baby still harangues mom and dad, though... we've all been there!
 Mom and Dad are probably wishing that they could be empty nesters (literally)
 There sure is a lot of coming and going here.

It takes a lot to feed three hungry teens
Wow, look at those talons! It's a miracle someone doesn't get their eye poked out.

  1. Kak -- what settings are you using to grab these shots with the unfurled wings?

  2. 400-500 ISO
    and a fast shutter speed (over 1000)
    It's an awesome lens!
