Osprey season has begun for us here in North Idaho. They are in a quite close proximity when being photographed at often around 50 feet. These birds will often sit high above someone fishing and swoop down to steal their catch. A funny thing to watch. The 2nd picture is milliseconds before hitting the water. Not the sharpness I wanted because of my SS but I'll take it.

Amazing five capture, well done

wagaboo, your second photo is amazing!! You captured the very thing that makes Ospreys special.

The 7DmkII is a great wildlife camera!
