Showdown at the Nest

Today at the osprey nest, another adult osprey started circling around, causing one of the local ospreys to chase him off amidst quite the aerial display. Also had one fly not ten feet over my head in his pursuit of the interloper. A shame it was cloudy, or else the pictures would have turned out better.

You can just make out the white head of the other parent sitting in the nest.

Cause you can’t have too many action shots.

Bonus: female cardinal.

Bonus #2: takeoff.
