Live in northern Virginia - the ospreys just started migrating back a few weeks ago. They've been busy rebuilding nests and catching fish. Caught this one snacking. Overcast morning so....not optimum lighting.

Nice capture! Do the ospreys hang at Lake Anna or just near the Rapphannock?

Haven't been down to Lake Anna. I normally shadow the state parks (Mason Neck, Widewater) and Occoquan Bay national wildlife refuge. Lots of seasonal ospreys and bald eagles as permanent residents.

I keep a boat on the lake.
I have seen some Hawks and Eagles.
I am going to have to check the State Parks.
The parks in the very north of VA, do not have much activity.
