Description
"Precarious Perch" by Debbie Oppermann. I had heard that the pair of Osprey were back at the nest at Wilson's Flats, Grand River, near Elora, Ontario Canada and was not disappointed when I went to check it out. In this image the Osprey had left the nest to perch on the flimsiest branch overlooking the river. The branch kept bending to the wind so that the Osprey would be almost sideways, but it hung on for quite awhile before leaving to hunt.The Osprey, Pandion haliaetus, is also called a sea hawk, fish eagle, river hawk and fish hawk. It is a very large powerful raptor, bird of prey, whose diet consists mainly of fish.
