Osprey

I am a bit late in posting these pics, but still figuring out how to do everything right.
It's a young Osprey, but mom flew away to another tree.

Good series barb_48 and that is one huge nest

Nice shots, ospreys are fun to watch while they fish.

Apparently from what I read in the local paper, they come back to the same spot. It is near the lake, for some reason they built the nest near a railroad track. Will see if they come back next year, hoping to get a shot when they are smaller. Maybe some of members who live in Toronto will come up with their great cameras and take better shots than mine.

Barb, great images. The pole the nest is on looks like an electrical pole except there no wires(?). Is there a story behind this as for the nesting location, because I know a few years ago an osprey tried to nest on a hydro pole in eastern BC and BC Hydro put up an empty pole with a platform on it for the osprey to use and they did use it.

Cheers,
