My First!
It was easily 300 feet away an not easy with my equipment hand held no less but I went in on it as much as I could so I could see what it was.
As I watched it watch me and then the water below I knew I was watching my first Osprey hunting for a fish and not one of the normal birds of prey looking to fly off with one of my visiting songbirds.
Just as this amazing bird was going in for the kill another large bird came in to what looked like a fight to me. They then were out of my field of vision so I am not sure how it ended.
I was lucky to see and capture it somewhat though so it was a great way to end my day.
Great shot. You were lucky!
Extremely lol good thing I gave up caffine lol
Great capture of the bird. To me just seeing one real would be a treasure.
I had no idea what it was and being so far away and no binoculars I grabbed the camera and used the zoom 🙂 I love that it fishes here.
Fab shot!
Thank you.
Very nice! I love your photos and your paintings. Very nice blog!

Where did you family originate from?
My grandparents last home was in Star Junction outside of Perryopolis.
Interesting, you were not that far away from Uniontown & Masontown.
Yes know Uniontown better than Masontown. Gradfather was a coal miner and nana owned her on beauty shop plus taught at a school
So very interesting! My father was a Mennonite Minister!
It’s what makes America great.
Found out Dad grew up in York Run then into the Navy at 17 then his parents moved to Star Junction.
