Osprey in flight

I captured this Osprey in flight at the Lake Seminole Park in Seminole, Florida last month.

Osprey in restaurant parking lot in St Pete

We stepped out of our car at a restaurant in St Pete and this just caught my eye. I reached right back in the car for my camera. I could not believe my luck. Behind the Osprey is a blackbird. There were several in the tree, but the Osprey was not about to let them chase him away.

When we came back out after eating the Osprey was gone.

Such luck to be there just at the right time.

Osprey off shore at John's Pass

I took this photograph of a Osprey from the boat on a sunset cruise. I may be wrong, it may not be an Osprey. If I am wrong, please correct me. I am still a very young birder.

UPDATE: Per the comments, I did correctly ID this bird as an Osprey.
