Thanks Bob, Denise, Steph & Pat. The Osprey was a fun shot. There are some nests on Santee Cooper Reservoir in SC that are very low to the water so I could shoot this standing on a pontoon boat. Got lots of chances with the adults coming and going as well.

Wow, Very Nice DD, What kind of flower is that??

Some kind of falcon from a bird show. Don't remember what species and I don't have my bird book on me at the moment.
