Nicely done!  Ospreys tend to like their nests in more open locations, but I guess they take what they can get!

Thanks everyone...the nest was in a much more open arena. This shot (totally unedited) was at 70mm as the boat cruised under and to the right...The shot I posted was the only one where there wasn't foliage in the way of his head.

This osprey seems to have locked on a fish or another prey.

Well done, Chris!

I think he was locked on the boat and the touristas within...as if to say, "hey, get the hell out of here, can't you see I'm trying to eat."
