Another incredible video!




Subject: Fishing





This is truly incredible video. This Osprey got 5-6 fish at
a time, then got a flounder under 3' of water, and then made off with what
looks to be a 5+ lb. steelhead.

I've never seen a bird shake water off like a dog does - wouldn't want to
get in the way of him when he's got his eyes locked and his talons in the
"load" position!

There are 3 sequences in this one video:

1st sequence he catches half a dozen fish in one strike.

2nd sequence he plunges talons into deep water right to the bottom to grab
his prey.

3rd sequence he captures a big old fat fish that looks as if it weighs more
than he does! He then lands, changes his grip on the fish so that it is aerodynamic and flies off.

This is incredible to watch, best viewed in full screen mode !!!!!!!
