I noticed a Cormorant land next to a young Osprey perched on a sign in the lagoon. I was on my pontoon boat so I moved closer to see what would happen. The Cormorant convinced the Osprey to leave. The Osprey flew around for a few minutes and then landed on a nearby piling. The Cormorant came after the Osprey again and took over the piling. I'm posting 12 photos of this event....for the BIF folks.

I hope you find this as entertaining as I did. I used the Canon 7D with the Tamron SP 70-300mm lens.

Great shots Sunfish, I'm always amazed when raptors are chased away by other birds

Good set as usual, hard to tell who the king of the roost may be.
