It dropped down from its riverside perch into the water. All I saw was a big splash of water. When I regained focus, it was crossing the river. I was shooting from the Bridge over Grand River where the Osprey nest is.

This image shows the wing and tail feather detail so well, Karl- a fine in-flight photograph, overall.

Shooting from the bridge has given you a great view of the lovely topside feather details, Karl!
