Subject: Osprey Heads Up
Hard to believe this Osprey got 5-6 fish at a time, then got a flounder under 3 feet of water, then made off with what looks to be a 5+ lbs steelhead. Have you ever seen a bird shake water off like a dog does? (To shed the weight of the water). Wouldn't want to get in its way when its eyes are locked onto you and his talons in the "load" position! It's talons are amazing!
There are 3 sequences in this one video:
1st sequence - catches half a dozen fish in one strike.
2nd sequence - plunges talons into deep water to grab the prey.
3rd sequence - captures a big old fish that looks as if it weighs more than he does!
This is incredible to watch!
