Osprey snap shot
A bird watcher that was there when we arrived said the Osprey had just eaten a large fish, so we assume that's why it wasn't in a rush to fly away.  Canon 5dmkII 400mm L series. iso200 f6.7 1/750sec handheld.

Man! That is a fantastic shot Mike!
I believe more color control in Sonar could be a good thing for some.

Thanks Spacey,
It was a good day to drive down to the coast.
We also stopped to see a Bald Eagle whose nest we know of. We got to see an air show when it flew away for a moment and came back to it's roost with a fresh duck.
The interesting part was that as soon as it returned a juvenile bald eagle flew out of the pine forest behind us and started begging it's parent for a piece of duck.
They both took off and gave us a close up acrobatics show as the juvenile pestered the adult for a snack.
It was one of those moments that you choose to enjoy rather than try to photograph.
I kinda wish I had a sound recorder with me because they were both squawking at each other with vigor.
:-)
best regards,
mike

Absolutely awesome picture.
I've been seeing a few more round here lately but never with that much clarity.

Wow, one of the best animal pictures I think I've ever seen! GJ Mike! Near one of the highway interchanges up here the Ospreys have built this flippin' humongous nest on top of a really tall street light. It's cool to watch them watching us drive by. Heh, just did a quick google search and here's the exact nest a few years ago (it's much bigger now).  And another shot... 
Time for all of you to head over to Beyond My DAW!

Killer picture mike- if I could take a photo like that I'd be a proud man...
Reminds me of the Eagle from the Muse video Knights of Cydonia.
