A great capture of a beautiful raptor. Nice detail against the sky.

Wonderful capture of a wonderful bird. Such skill in catching fish! I wish I could match it. Well done - this shot shows the osprey off very well!

Great clarity and nicely composed with a lovely blue background of the clear sky. I too hope he returns so we can see more. Excellent job.

How magnificent. Where did you find this fellow? It is surprising you managed to get that close... It seems to get ready for attack.

Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Wonderful capture of nature at it's best. The detail is amazing as is the action you've frozen in time - very, very nice -

That's really quite a sight! You must have a pretty decent zoom. We have quite a few Osprey around here but I'm yet to get a good shot of one. Ditto to all of the above. Great capture, clarity, pose...

What a pasture Robert. I hope your friend returns for and encore so we get to see more captures like this one! S/he is really sitting on top of the world, eh? I love the wing span. So elegant and powerful. Very well done. Thank you for sharing this with me ;=)

My goodness, I just caught this on the front page and I had to leave a comment. This is a superb capture and a well deserved c-index. Faved!
