When the cold set in here in NYC, I took some time to travel south and visit some Ospreys who are spending their winters in warmer environments.
This is a relaxed, recently-fed, and content Osprey.
I watched this one take in the sun for a while, then embark on a fishing expedition.
But, someone else had taken the favorite fishing spot!
Excuse me!
The second Osprey refused to budge out of its spot, and the first one kept flying.
After the fist one passed by, the second Osprey decided to give chase.
Eventually, it flew up to a perch to dry off after being in the water.
Another Osprey in the same area flew around with what looks like a partial fish.
The Osprey flew the food behind a tree where it dropped it off with its mate who was working on a nest.
I had to leave for the day, but it was great seeing the Ospreys chase each other around in the air and in the water. Not a bad way to spend the winter...
