Short and sweet and to the point…looking forward to opening the summer place and checking on Osprey.

People often ask me what is my favourite bird ? Well the answer is simply…it’s what ever bird/owl the camera is focused on at the time.

Some captures just seem to stick in my mind more than others…much like this encounter with an Osprey.

Thinking back to Aug when at the summer place in Gimli…the plan for the morning was to cut and stack some wood.
Well that plan went out the window as my thoughts turned to the Osprey.

Arriving at the nest sight only to find it empty…knowing that if I wait long enough the juvenile would return.
After some time the waiting was over as it was returning.

On a scale of 1-10 I gave this juvenile a 9 for it’s landing form and style…plus some wood did get cut and stacked that afternoon.
