Went to visit my Cousin who lives in Strichen!!. Spent a day fishing on Lochter, mainly so I could get to see the Ospreys that were nesting there ( all legal btw) On the first visit there, there were 2 adults and 2 young!! And guess what !! I forgot my blooming camera !! So i rescheduled for a couple of days later!!
I arrived to a bird free area!!! Not a bird in sight and this time armed with my Canon 350D and the only lens I have a 200mm zoom!!. Nothing!!! Then about 3 hours later I spotted one, it circled for a while then landed on the nest, called. I assumed it was one of the young want ing to be fed. I managed to get a few shots off but as I was fishing later, it only decided to try and feed itself right in front of me!!! It landed on the water, sadly missed one of the rising trout and then took off and flew right towards me !!! What a magnificent sight. Here are a few of the pics
PLease forgive me if I have posted this in the wrong section or Mods could you please move it to the correct one :t:
