    Osprey takes out 2 fish at once.........

    Took my Ski Boat out to Lake Jesup with a friend to see what we could find. Besides 5 Eagles and a 100 Osprey it was a pretty cool trip. Cloudy and windy but still a good time.
    Sequence shot of an Osprey taking out 2 fish at once. He finally had to let one go as the weight has holding him down!! Rest of the pic's later.........

    Wow, that large fish looks like it weighs what the Osprey does. That's one tough bird.
    Nice catch Eric thanks for sharing them...

    It's hard to believe he could carry them both. Great capture.

    That seems like the catch of a lifetime for both the osprey and you. Great job, Eric.
