    Ospreys at peace

    While walking the other day at a place I wont locate due to recent warnings of hunters, I saw these two beautiful Ospreys. At first I thought they were nesting right there, but couldnt imagine it. When I checked the picture closer, I saw the barbed wire between the sticks.
