My recent vacation on Fripp Island, SC was enhanced considerably by this juvenile osprey. Although late in the season it lingered around the nest the whole time I was there. It's sibling was there also but left toward the end of our stay. I only wish for more of a head turn my way.

Very nice Dan. I really like the fact that it is a juv with the orange eye.

The head turn would have put it over the top, but still a great image, DAn.

Very nicely captured. Love the "landing gear down" timing. :D

Great light, I love the 3-D look, too bad it did not turn the head. Sincere congratulations.
