Osprey Chick @ 18 days...

[EricD]

Went by the Osprey nest and boy has that little critter grown fast in the last 5 days.
Starting to take colors like his Mama!! Looks like the Adult got some green paint or maybe some slime on her neck

Sheesh, you're right....what a growth rate!

Wonderful pics, as always. I really like the last one, as the dark green background is more dramatic

WOW! Amazing series there! :thumbup::thumbup:

I noticed some green patches on the adult neck. Are those natural?

Thank you for sharing.

Seems the bird got into some green paint. It has since all washed out!
