Osprey Flight with Koi

Huntley Meadows Park - Alexandria, Virginia
August 28th, 2016
For a few weeks, you could count on a regular visit from a female Osprey coming to Huntley for an early morning meal. On this day, the Osprey was able to come up with a fish on her very first dive. The fish capture happened on the other side of the park, but this Osprey was nice enough to perform a fly by in front of me, her prize in her claws on her exit out of the park back to her nest. I had some difficulty locking focus on the bird due to the busy tree background, but I was able to grab this capture.

I am in my 50's and happily married with 5 daughters from our blended family. I became interested in photography just a few short years ago, much later in life than many but my passion is strong. I started out experimenting with scenic mountain shots, landscapes, flowers and anything nature as being outside is where I am happiest.
