You never cease to please. Thanks for the shooting info. One day I might be able to shot as well as you (probably by mistake).

That shot is not just your best, it's the best one I've seen in 65 years of photography. Great job!

Brilliant capture!
BTW - do you still use your Tamron 150-600?

I took this photo yesterday at Hayden Lake close to where I live in Coeur d' Alene, north Idaho.
the osprey had just caught a salmon and was on it's way to eat it back in the nearby trees.
Canon 5Dsr - Canon 100-400 II - Canon 1.4x III - 1/500 - f/11 - ISO @ 1250. Distance was about 150-175 feet.
I used 560mm. Hand held.

What they all said. I really like the background. I once watched humans fishing on a small lake while a couple of osprey worked the same lake. The final tally was osprey 9, humans 0. I wondered how the osprey could eat all they caught!

You've pretty much nailed this, Regis. As mentioned on a previous shot of yours I like the sharp bird and the movement in the wings. I viewed the download and expanded that to see the beak / eye / victim as sharp as the pixel limit will allow. I expect you see it even better. Fantastic.
I appreciate your excellent comment, John. I thank you very much for your great reply.
