It's nice to know that as much as we encroach on their territories, they still find a place to nest

I thought seeing an Osprey fishing in a duck pond next to a shopping mall was a bit strange but I've never seen anything like this. Thanks for sharing.

I was once driving through scotland & seen a Osprey nesting on top of a pylon must have been 100feet up.

Don't know if they are still there are not.

There is also a fish farm up Muir of Ord where oprey's come daily for fish.

There was a lot of work going on last time I was there literally 20/30 yds away from these round concrete pools where the fish were.

The osprey's would come down stright into these pools which were quite small as well oblivious to what was going on around them.

They used to take up to 5 fish a day.

The farm owners used to provide a large hide in the bushes for people but this has now gone.

Fantastic to watch
