Osprey Catching a Fish

[yankees368]

As some of you saw in my other post, I got a great picture of an Osprey (not a hawk) catching a fish today. Here is my first attempt at photo editing with Lightroom. Enjoy! Any suggestions or tips are welcome.

Great shots!

[NickPeterman]

Agreed. Love the one with him and the reflection!

Thanks! I couldn't have gotten luckier with those shots. I might never get something like that again. I wonder where his nest is...

Am I the only one who clicked on this expecting to see a V-22?

Probably not, but I would definitely like to see one attempt to catch a bird!
