Mark Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 This was take at Choke Canyon Lake State Park here in Texas which is about an hour south of San Antonio on 11 March. I know it isn't the best of pics to try to go off of, but the reason I suspect Osprey is because it was flying around over the deeper water of the lake. I was only able to get one shot of him before he passed too far out of range. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jefferson Shank Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) I cropped it in so that you can see it better. Looks like an Osprey... Edited March 29, 2020 by Jefferson Shank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Thanks, but I still can't see much. I think if the OP cropped the original photo it would be a little better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nivalis Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 i think it is an osprey mainly because of large size and visible W shape in the wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
