Watched as the Osprey expertly stole the bait from several surf fishing rigs. Just missed on a couple of shots. Appears to have caught a crab on the second shot. I was determined to use my UHH tips to get a better capture the next day. But the weather.....

Watching the Osprey dive and catch its dinner is amazing and you got some great shots! The landscape is gorgeous as well.

They are all worthy photographs but #3 steals my heart. I want to be there listening to the surf and the call of the gulls.
