Osprey!

Osprey Male (Pandion haliaetus) photo by Larry Jordan

I took this photo with my digiscoping setup last June (click image to see full sized photo).  It was shot at f1.8, 1/500 sec, at ISO 1000. I love Osprey and this is one of my favorite photos.  You can read the full story of this guy and his mate here.  Now get on over to World Bird Wednesday to see more great bird photos from around the world!

    Those are the most riveting eye I have ever seen. A Grand photo there Larry! The settings for your digiscope are wild, f1.8? That is a lens! I clicked over to the main article and found it fascinating too. The deed was done in 15 seconds with a 50 mph wind and you watching! Nature is nothing if not efficient!
