Full-timing in our 24-foot 2006 Forest River Sunseeker 2200 as of June 1, 2011, I've added solar panels and a catalytic heater so that we can camp off-grid comfortably. My dog, Katie, is great company. We traveled a bit in the Western States our first year, and visited the deserts of Arizona and most of the New Mexico State Parks the next four. This year - 2016 - I'm hoping to find a park model to buy so we will have a home base, but we'll continue to travel, too. What a life! :)

Osprey fishing trip
Saw this Osprey Sunday afternoon trying to pull a large gold fish out of Bluewater
Lake. The fish must have been hooked/attached to the bottom, because he
kept going under the water and coming up with it, but couldn't get it
out of the water and ended up flying off without it. Too bad, it was a
nice fish.

Too bad he wasn't able to get his fish after all that work!! Great pictures!!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures of the fishing osprey.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures. I am in awe that he could not get that fish out. Wonder if it was just too heavy?
ReplyDeleteCool photos! The fish looked too big for the Osprey. He gets an "A" for effort!!
ReplyDeletegreat pictures ... and I know it's food chain nature ... but kinda glad the fish got away ... gut the Osprey will get another ... that's what they do.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, I wonder what kind of fish that is that is such a bright color.
ReplyDeleteOuch, can you imagine what those talons must feel like? I too wonder if the fish was just too heavy for him.
ReplyDeleteIncredible pictures! I've never seen a gold fish that big? I wonder what it was. Reminded me of this video of an Osprey fishing. You always seem to be in the right place at the right time! :)

You will really enjoy it if you've never seen it. Pats to Katie.
Great shots! What a story. Probably the guy was too heavy. My guess that the gold fish might be a pet koi that someone slipped out when it got to big for the fish tank. These carps fish can grow up to 36" and can reach an age of 20 to 30 years. Maybe not in the wild with hungry ospreys around. :))
ReplyDeleteThe Osprey looks like having hard time lifting his catch.
