Yesterday afternoon at 3:00pm I was down the lane on the west side of the lakes looking for Blackcaps, when I looked behind me and managed a couple of shots of a slow flying raptor, an Osprey. Checking Birdguides I found an Osprey reported at 11:30am at the Lakes.
This morning the Osprey was reported again at 9:00am so we went straight down the road that our cottage is off and at the bottom of the road a group of birders had the Osprey sighted on a telegraph pole.
All shots very much record shots, I do not remember that the telegraph pole was leaning, oh well must hold the camera straight!

Great shots Mike, thats a real treat to see an Osprey.
We have been very lucky Roy, this bird was about 10 minutes walk from my house!
Only record shots but one day I want to get up close and personal.
