Osprey on Duty
« on: February 09, 2015, 08:18:26 AM »
Yah I know, not about elk but still an absolutely incredible VID  8)..

Fills his punch card in the first sequence with one dive; spots/nails a flounder on the bottom in the second; and nabs a fish that possibly weighs as much as the bird in the third sequence.  Enjoy.

Predator birds are pretty awesome. But how do you get a flounder getting caught by an osprey on camera without scaring away either the fish or the bird?

Kind of like how do you ride on public transportation and yet never be at risk for being assaulted...if you have to ask, you'll never know  :chuckle:
