Title: Osprey with Fish
Post by: Photoman on September 25, 2009, 04:56:52 PM

Greetings to all :D

Stopped off at Oakbank Pond on the weekend and to my surprise found a ospey flying above, abit rare for this neck of the woods. The pond is on Centre St north of Steels Ave between Bathurst St and Yonge St.

Enjoy

Great shot - interesting to see that there are still wild goldfish around up there.

Absolutely beautiful!

Is this the pond right
across from the Presbyterian church
with all the reeds

Looks like the Osprey might have left as it has not been seen in a few days.
