OSPREY WITH FISH AT JACKSONVILLE BEACH, FLORIDA


I had forgotten about this fun contest until I stumbled upon @tattoodjay's post here.

Earlier I came across this shot in my files while I was looking for something else. I caught this image of an osprey with a fish at Jacksonville Beach, Florida a couple of years ago! I still did not find what I was looking for!

The theme for the Photo Fun Contest by @claudiaz is flying. Check out the rules.

Nice!

Thanks you! :-)

awesome shot good luck in the contest

Thanks! I was watching an air show, so was looking up when he flew right over our heads with his catch of the day!

Right place at the right time :)

Glad he did not drop it on me. LOL!

with my luck with birds he would have dropped it on me

Reminds me of the time years ago when I was with my Dad at a park and he was about to enjoy his lovely fish supper when a seagull decided to drop some "sauce" on it! LOL!

LOl thats exactly what I was meaning has happened to me a few times

so nice to see you taking part in this contest @dmcamera and photo is really a great capture, right place at the right moment!

When I can, I like to participate. I have not seen a post that gives the contest deadline though. Am I just missing it somehow?

no, I don't give a specific deadline its just always 7 days from the day of the announcement of the winners. I usually post the new contest on the same day. You can always find it in the discord contest channel as well

Ok. Thanks. 😊

Beautiful. Caught in the act! I love the gradations of color in the sky, with that pinker cloud in his path. Well done.

Funny thing is I was standing on the beach watching an air show, and this guy stole the show for me. :-) By the way, I think the pinkish cloud came from planes emitting the dye.

Gorgeous predator! (...and the fish too, hope he dropped it for your nice dinner :) ... sorry it is Friday night and I prob getting too hungry ... and I am a pescatarian too lol )

They are great to watch!

Good catch ;)

By the osprey or me? Lol!

It was intended for both of you ;)

Thanks! LOL!
