Fantastic shot! Enjoyed all of them. I'd love to see an osprey take a fish. I've seen a lot of fish eagles in Ethiopia, but never saw any take a fish. There are parts of Britain where ospreys can be seen, but they're very rare. > whatcha lookin at? > http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5570302097/ > > demon cormorant > http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5570302411/ > > http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5570303399/ > > The flash didn't fire, so I played with with the shot a bit: > http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/5570303399/ > > These and a few more that I've picked out are in this set: > http://www.flickriver.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157626252702803/ > > I've learned that for birding, especially late in the day, a monopod > just isn't enough.
