The ultimate fisher… the Osprey

Spread the love


This is a truly incredible video. I can’t believe this Osprey got 5-6 fish
at a time, then got a flounder under 3′ of water, and then made off with
what looks to be a 5+ lb. steelhead.

I’ve never seen a bird shake water off like a dog does – wouldn’t want to
get in the way of him when he’s got his eyes locked and his talons in the
"load" position!

There are 3 sequences in this one video:
1st sequence – he catches half a dozen fish in one strike.
2nd sequence – he plunges talons into deep water right to the bottom to
grab his prey.
3rd sequence – he captures a big old fat fish that looks as if it weighs
more than he does!
