|
Another big fish occupies the Ospreys for the good part of a generally overcast day. |
| The male, at left, flew the fish into the nest but the female was not interested in it. | |
|
The male took the fish to his eating perch where he picked at it for awhile. |
| The male leaves the nest after depositing the fish which the female now took and began feeding herself and the nestlings. | |
|
After satisfying their hunger, the female abandoned the fish which brought the male back to the nest to retrieve it. |
| He worked at the fish for a time.... | |
|
....then returned it to the nest. The fish went the rounds a couple of times before it finally was finished off. |
| The female took an exercise flight around the area returning with branches for the nest. | |
|
She tried various locations to fit the branch in before finally finding just the right spot. |
| Not to be outdone, the male brings another branch to the nest. | |
