Title: Osprey at Balsam Lake
Post by: MEGHAN on August 25, 2010, 11:43:17 AM

Thanks to Mike (mkybear) for taking me to Balsam Lake so I can photograph his Osprey.
Great company, great weather, great shooting...perfect day I'd say.

thanks for going with me Meghan...it was a awesome day up there!
I hope the Osprey hangs around a little longer as it seems some have left the area.

Hey eveyone,
Thanks for all the kind words.
This was so much fun for me. I've never been this close to an Osprey,and being able to watch (and photograph) one fishing was really awesome.
I had to throw in a couple of GBH shots, I can't resist.  :D
I'm glad you all like the shots.
It was nice to get such a low level flight shot.
Meghan
