The osprey in the middle is the one building the nest.

WOW! Thank you for shooting that...I wondered what they looked like when I saw those pics of them carrying big sticks. Sure doesn't look all that comfortable. And no protection! (I'm thinking lightening!) Amazing.

We're along the San Diego coast, so lightening hits about once every twenty years. I guess they know the odds. lol

Must be a young pair. Looks like they could use a lesson or two.
Nice shots.
