Crop of an osprey flying. Not very sharp.
Ardmore, a blustery day. The north bay calm out of the wind. For a few minutes I watched an osprey, circling round, at one point diving into the water, then up, empty clawed. Eventually it disappeared into the drizzle & haze. I got a few blurry photos, this is a crop.

  1. @Miraz thanks, I was very excited. They were extinct in the uk until they reintroduced themselves in the 1950s. I’ve only seen them a couple of times over 40 years ago. The numbers nesting seem to be rising now.
