The female Osprey is quick to leave the nest and make sure that her chick lands on the pole okay and is in no danger. I liked this picture as it really shows how big their wing span is over the nest.

Brilliant capture Debra. It starts with a great looking nest and evolves into a motion capture with her about to take flight against a softly clouded sky.. her wingspan is incredible. So beautiful in every detail.

Agree with you Debra, impressive wing span. You must appreciate the 600mm for those far shot. Frame the way I like with good lighting.
