Thwarted Again

Had plans to shoot the Sunset at La Jolla Shores, but a fog bank rolled in.
So I decided to try to get one of the Ospreys in flight.
No dice, this one was just guarding the nest and its mate was nowhere to be seen.
At least I got a nice walk in after a day in front of the computer and phone.

The thrill of the hunt... and you did manage to find a good subject for today's photo. He seems to be anxious for his mate to return. I've seen that look in men's eyes after a few hours with kiddos. Good find and nice photo for us to enjoy.
