I like to photograph birds as well as watch them, maybe more so, and I've got a hard-drive full of birds, many of which are raptors, including ospreys. I head off to southern Spain to see the raptor migration every autumn, so I'm not averse to spending money, and you can never have too many good photos.
I'd be up for spending a bit of money to photograph some ospreys near to home, especially if the money was going to help a local business that would otherwise be making zilch on the presence of these birds.
But when I see prices like those quoted, I'd be wanting to take the bloody osprey home with me at the end of the shift, never mind a card-full of shots in less than natural surroundings.
