Osprey Passing Through the Woods With A Catch by Debra Martz

Normally, I would be looking for Osprey at the water's edge. However, this one surprised me when I was on a hiking trail and out of sight of the lake.

I spent a day on a little lake in Northern BC. Lots of birds were around. I hope to go back when the loons are out and about with their chicks. #waterfowl #birds #wildlife #canonR5 #WildlifePhotography #ExploreBC #CommonLoon #RedWingedBlackBird #Osprey

A common loon, from behind. It is looking to the left with its wings out wide.

A red winged black bird in flight, coming down to land on lily pads.

An osprey in flight, with a fresh fish that it caught. You can see blood dripping from the fish.

There is an osprey nest near our summer place, but we're not sure whether the breeding pair has been successful.

They often seem to both be away from the nest at the same time, but these photos from this morning show they are still around.

Young Osprey learning how to fly, being lit up by the just rising sun in North Florida. This Osprey's sibling had already left the nest.

Kalasääksen levotonta lentelyä, kun pesän vierestä menevät veneet ja laivat. The restless flight of an osprey when boats and ships pass by the nest.
Kun Lounaisista metsistä ei tahdo läytyä sopivia pesäpuita, niin suuri ja korkea meriväylän linjamerkkikin käy pesäksi (2. kuva). Siellä yksi pää näkyy, ehkä toinenkin poikanen näkymättömissä, joten risupesä lähellä ihmisasutuksia ja kalansaalistusvesiä ei ole ehkä huono valinta. Jotkut lajit soputuvat, toiset eivät.
(05/2025)

When there are less and less suitable old nesting trees in the South-West Finnish's forests, a large and tall seaway marker will do for a nest (2nd picture). A head of a chick is visible, perhaps another one is also in the nest. Twig nest situated near people's settlements and fishing waters is perhaps not a bad choice. Some species will adapt, others won't.

Color photo of an osprey landing on a wooden nest box atop a pole. The bird has either just landed or is about to within seconds, feet aren't visible so touchdown can't be confirmed. Wings are still extended upward in preparation for being folded. Background is blue sky.
