Don't Forget to Look Behind

One of the things I learned a long time ago was to always look behind when out shooting. Well today I was photographing a Great Egret in front of me. Then I looked behind in the other direction and saw this amazing Osprey flying right towards me and got this shot.

What a great flight shot of this osprey. Maybe he wanted his picture taken, too!
