Osprey with dinner!

[Heck]

Took around 50 shots of this bird at the local pond and this is the best one, the others were not sharp at all. I guess I need work on my focusing.

Nice photo. I would just crop it a little bit to get rid of some of the dead space.

Whooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice shot!!!! Are you a bird watcher??
*points at sig* We have osprey near us, but I've never been able to capture one with a fish! When I photograph birds in flight, I have the camera on continuous focus, so it keeps focusing as the bird changes positions in flight. It's also important to keep panning along with it as you push the shutter button, which takes lots of practice. I still find myself stopping the pan as I shoot and have to remind myself to keep moving.
