Time for a Friday fish fry! Whoops, it's Sunday--better put them on ice.

The Osprey was on the Maumee River a couple of years ago. After checking with fishermen the orange colored fish turns out to be a species of carp.

Those photos are really great. Really appreciate 'action' photos.
Yes, goldfish (and koi) are carp, and feral ones will grow large and over generations look more like wild carp probably due to predation on the more colorful offspring, or they may retain some of the colors of the parent fish for several generations, at least in part allowed by low predation. There is disagreement on whether they are the same species, though both goldfish and koi shared a common carp ancestor at some point, but how long ago is disputed, and some enthusiasts insist they are different from each other and from wild Asian or European carp.
