Osprey
What did the fish say when he posted bail?
“I’m off the hook!”
Interesting Fact: The Osprey is the only hawk on the continent that eats almost exclusively live fish. In North America, more than 80 species of live fresh- and saltwater fish account for 99 percent of the Osprey’s diet. Captured fish usually measure about 6–13 inches in length and weigh one-third to two-thirds of a pound. The largest catch on record weighed about 2.5 pounds.

I saw osprey nesting in Australia: amazing. Didn’t manage one decent photo: yours is cool.
Australia, that’s amazing on day I am planning to make my way over there. I am sure you will get one soon enough. Thank you very much for stopping by and sharing with us. Happy Blogging! 🙂
We have a large population in central Ontario. They nest on our hydro poles. Sometimes the nest look like they have tree limbs up there.
Ontario is amazing place I can see why they are there. Thank you very much for stopping by and sharing with us. Happy Blogging! 🙂
Great photo! Of course, I’m compelled to pay attention to an osprey picture given my screen name/musical moniker. I also heard that you can “adopt” one through the Audubon Society and get a plush osprey as a symbol for that donation. Hahahaha!
Thank you very much, I am really glad that you enjoyed it. That is pretty cool that it’s possible to do so. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us and Happy Blogging! 🙂
No problem. They’re a legit organization and I’m glad they have my favorite bird represented. Thank you!
