    This Red-winged Blackbird was none too happy with this Osprey flying over his territory, so the chase was on. After a couple of maneuvers, it was Osprey 1, RWB 0.

    Osprey stretches out its beautiful talons to land on the branch of a dead tree. She perched on this branch for quite a while and called out from time-to-time to encourage her two remaining chicks to fledge. Swipe right to see a closer/cropped view of the landing.

    An Osprey mama with two of her three chicks (you can see the beak of the third one in the lower left). These chicks had not yet fledged back in July and were hanging out with mama waiting for daddy to bring back some more fish. Ospreys eyes are a dark blue when they hatch, but after a few days the turn to the beautiful orange/red you see in this image. At the age of maturity which is around two years, the eyes will then turn yellow.
