Description
After the time change this past spring I took advantage of the extra daylight hours to hike along Osprey Trail in Honeymoon Island State Park, Dunedin, Florida. The evening was dinner time for the Osprey and I was fortunate to witness several Osprey bring food back to their nests to feed their young. This was all quite an exciting adventure for me, eventhough many of the birds were out of range for my telephoto lense. With a little persistense, I kept trying and was able to capture this moment in flight. I am still amazed at how this Osprey had this perfectly aligned grip on this fish as he brought it back to his nest.
