Eagle and Osprey
I've been occupied for the last couple of days as my nephew and family were visiting. Of course we had to go to Huntington Beach State Park to see the alligators and birds. The youngest was literally jumping up and down at seeing his first and 8th gator. We were treated to a pair of ospreys diving and after one caught a fish an Eagle arrived to take it away. Too far away for good pics and the white sky made it hard to even get a in focus shot as the raced around in circles. All in all a really good morning for them and us! Here is the best shot I got, although not very good! lol!!

You've captured the action and excitement of the day Tee.

That's worth way faaar more than a sharp image. Just seeing this picture will remind you of your young nephews excitement.

Great double capture showing the size difference nicely. You would not think the Osprey was as large of bird as it is by looking at this comparison (lol). Well done Bob!!!!
