An Osprey's Dinner

Tucked in at the top of a dying pine, an Osprey couple has dinner.


Mother Osprey sits watching her clutch of eggs high atop a pine tree.

Father Osprey flies in with tonight's dinner...a nice, juicy fish for Mother Osprey.

Daddy drops off the fish to a hungry mommy.

Luckily, Lake New Melones is nearby packed full of fish.

Mom and Dad chat about the day, future plans, the need for a nest repair.

"Thanks for getting dinner babe."

"No problem dear.  Enjoy your meal."

"Woohoo little eggies.  Watch dad dance.

Mommy gets to enjoy a meal in silence.

This looks like a nice spot to pick at fish.

Mmmmm, great fish dinner.
