Thanks, everyone, again.

Margaret, I haven't seen the male feeding the female probably because she is not sitting on eggs, yet. I have seen it in the past but in most cases the male just drops off a fish and then departs.

Met, when the situation allows the use of a tripod, I always use the Nikkor 500mm lens. That's what I used here.

duc, my software has a trim feature in addition to the crop feature. For whatever reason, I usually use the trim feature which wipes out the EXIF data. If I use the crop feature, it is retained. For these photos, I used Manual settings, i.e. shutter speed - 1/1250 sec.; aperture - f/8; ISO - 400. I might bump up the shutter speed slightly the next time.

These are the last Osprey photos that I will post for awhile unless I find some "fishing" action.
