Osprey
It was getting towards the end of the Osprey season at Kinnordy, and you have to make the most of the opportunities before they leave.

This one actually had a successful dive, but I messed up the two images when he flew off with his prize.

He was quite distant across the far side of the loch, which is why I've got the hill in the picture... but I like the setting.

Great aerial shot of this beauty Delia, and the hills behind gives for a great setting, well done.

That's a wonderful image of this Osprey just before it commits to the dive. I like the hills in the back ground, Dee. Great job.
