Aerobatic Osprey

I came across a new osprey nest on the University of Oregon practice field. The University removed another nest that was on top of a light in the middle of the field. This one is on the edge and likely less of a problem to them So it remains and is used by a pair of osprey. When I came along, the osprey apparently didn't like me being there, across ths street from the nest. It flew overhead protesting. I shot some pictures and then moved on so as not to disturb it needlessly.

1/640s f/5.6 at 300.0mm iso560
