Description
Migrating
ospreys
take a rest near
Szeged
by
Fehér-tó
for a week or two during their flight back home to the
Baltic Region
. By
Szatymaz
there is a meadow where bird lovers installed several artificial stakes as resting place for them and the ospreys happily accept them for feeding and preening and contemplating about the
Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything
. I had a chance to spend two mornings in hide around them and while the first morning they didn't give a shift (er... actually they did!) for being photographed, I was lucky on the second morning. Even with the luck and previous observations the bird that came closest to me was still pretty far to be shot with my 400 mm lens, therefore these shots are pixel level deep crops.
Here you can see him teaching a carp about the art of flying (falling to the ground and miss that). The carp actually changed his mind already (into osprey breakfast).

Unauthorized usage infringes my rights and makes me very nervous and sad.
Disclaimer: Flying with an osprey is extremely dangerous: a carp gave its life for this shot. Don't try it at your own home!
