Description
Osprey captured in a flyby with partial meal in tow on Blue Cypress Lake. This is a major breeding ground area for the osprey in central Florida. The last week of April is spent gathering as much food as possible for feeding the newly hatched young . The nests are built atop the 100’s of cypress trees that line the edge of the lake.

“I never tire of watching the osprey scan the water for fish from high above, then once the prey is spotted, to see them hover in mid air and dive for the catch.”
