zbird Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Hi guys, I took these pics at a fishery in Kentucky earlier this morning. I think all the pics are ospreys, but I would appreciate a confirmation! I also thought in that pics 3 and 4, the wing tips might be too smooth and uniform to be an osprey, so I'm second-guessing myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
