Just a quick post today to show a few photos of Osprey fishing near Small Point, Maine. When Sharon and I arrived at the location late this morning during low tide, the sun was already fairly high in the sky. We plan to return for an early Sunday morning photo shoot. The light won’t be as harsh and the lower sun angle should add excellent light to the undercarriage of the Osprey.

I have a lot to write about and many photos to show, but little time right now. Rest assured, I will be posting regularly once again beginning tomorrow (Sunday). We are having an absolutely beautiful day (64° F.!) and it’s time to head out for an evening photo shoot.
Happy birding!

Fantastic photos, indeed! We saw an osprey yesterday and I got some amateurish shots through the scope that do show off the impressive black-and-white of the bird at rest in a treetop.
Hi,
Found these trought a Twitter user. These pictures are just beautiful!!! Wish I could spend time doing this with my husband as we use to about 22 years ago. Maybe later… when th 8 year old is older!
