At first I thought I've spotted an Eagle, but....

...I'm not possitive that it's. Perhaps an Osprey?

Sure looks like an Osprey to me! Beautiful perch too.

Great shot!

Thanks Patti, this is my second time seeing an Osprey at close range. It was a delightful experience. Spring is in full swing here. Deciduous trees are 'greening' up fast.

Lily: Great shots, and from that second photo that's definitely an Osprey! I took some pictures in February of some nesting on the light poles at one of our Wal-Mart's but my computer crashed and I lost a few thousand pictures! I did upload a couple to the Bird Files. You should add your zip code and comment and pictures too! http://davesgarden.com/guides/birdfiles/go/110/
