Backlit Osprey

[cybertec69]

A couple from this evening, light was behind the bird and dropping fast, the bird made four dives before hitting the jackpot. It was getting late and dinner needed to be served.

1. Empty, but not done yet. Persistence is the key, for bird and photographer.

Great!
My favorite is number 3.
If the eye was just a tiny bit more visibly it would be even greater.

Nice captures for both of you. The water really makes these special.

Nice set, I like No 4 for the eye contact and the wing position says power.
