Birders---perhaps this has already made the rounds, but if you havent' seen it, here's some great footage of osprey strikes. Don T. In the first sequence, he catches half a dozen fish in one strike. In the second sequence, he plunges talons into deep water right to the bottom to grab his prey. In the third sequence, he captures a big old fat fish that looks as if it weighs more than he does!
Incredible photography (best viewed in full screen mode)! http://www.youtube.com/embed/nA3LtXnNIto?feature=player_embedded >From the Grand Valley Audubon Society This birding-information e-mailing reaches many people on the Western Slope.
