Osprey takes out 2 fish at once.........

[EricD]

Took my Ski Boat out to Lake Jesup with a friend to see what we could find. Besides 5 Eagles and a 100 Osprey it was a pretty cool trip. Cloudy and windy but still a good time.
Sequence shot of an Osprey taking out 2 fish at once. He finally had to let one go as the weight has holding him down!! Rest of the pic's later.........

Hey Eric! I am really impressed with these. You have managed to capture what I feel is a rare catch with the Osprey. Its definately one your best. It shows that hard work and persistance really pays off. Great Job!!!
