I've heard several people speak of seeing some ospreys out at the state park I regularly visit, but I'd never encountered them myself until yesterday. One of them was screeching constantly, so all I had to do was follow the sound!
Screecher flew off...
They've built a rather nice nest in the channel marker!
Screecher's absence left Fishclaw checking me out.
Fishclaw headed out, keeping dinner handy.
Didn't drop the fish!
And joined by Screecher
I used the video mode of my camera to record Screecher's calling. That was constant the entire hour I was in this part of the park, never stopped!
