great shot Thomas, Osprey are by far my favorite subject and I just love a high quality image of them., this is very well exposed with exceptional detail !

My favorites have all flown south for the winter, if you see one with a clouded eye it could be the Mom of the Chicks I covered this summer, please say hello for me and let her know I'll see her in the late spring !!
