 Posted: Oct 19, 2009 7:29 pm Post subject: Bird on a wire |
 |
|
This bird was hanging around my backyard this afternoon. I dont know why, but he was there for about 3 hours, I mowed the grass worked in the yard and he/she just watched. Kind of strange.
Not sure what type of bird, thought maybe an Osprey.
That feather pattern and color would look cool on the bottom of a deck!!

Ejazzle, thier is a Bald Eagle just down the road from us. He kind of took over an Osprey nest on a power pole right by Lake Monroe. They are an awesome bird. My wife got some great shots of bald eagles south of town. Must have been 5 of them in this one area.

| I hate ospreys. They aim their shizzle at you from over 30ft away and never hesitate to hit bullseye
