Those photos are stunning
I agree with you Fred these pictures are absolutely fantastic, did it have a fish in each talon in the last picture a double hookup! thanks for putting them up Mile,
Jim
Looked again at those photographs how did I miss the fact that it obviously has two fish in the second one down!
Thanks for sharing Mike :D
Capturing nature truly is magic :D

I do hope the bird was not ill after eating those nasty pellet fed fish. :lol:

If it eats a lot of them it will be. The heavy metals and other toxins in the pellets are concentrated in the fish, mainly in fatty tissue, and are further concentrated in the birds that eat them. Bad news for chicks and presumably not very good for the adults either.
