Spotted several of these raptors (if someone can ID, that would be great). Had to clean the shots up and adjust some exposure, but they didn't turn out too badly.

It appears that you have some nice shots of egrets, Howard. Happy 4th.

You are correct and I had a senior moment in typing.

They are osprey. They are fairly common along the east coast and sometimes inland near lakes and rivers. They primarily eat fish. Nice shots 👍

Thanks RCJets,

I thought so, We have them in Colorado, but the coloring is somewhat different.
