Could this be a fish without its skin? Perhaps the skin came off with the
head of the fish?

There was an article a year or so ago in the StarTribune, I believe, about the
proliferation of Osprey in the metro area in recent years being partially
attributed to the large numbers of koi present in many small lakes and ponds.
Koi can withstand conditions in ponds and lakes that many other
Koi, for sure. I’ve watched Osprey and Bald Eagles taking them from a large
neighborhood pond that was stocked with koi.

That very thing occurred on Melody Lake in Edina. It is a muddy silty lake
mainly inhabited by bullheads and turtles.
Several years ago, maybe ten, there were three large schools of goldfish
or koi that became obvious the day the ice went out. Shortly thereafter
Osprey arrived. Those fish could
We have an osprey in our neighborhood that takes Koi/Goldfish out of a
nearby Koi pond. That would be my guess as to what you are seeing.

A couple of thoughts from experiences long ago.
The first osprey I saw carrying a fish was during college years. Against a
cloudless blue sky, the osprey beat nestward with a gorgeous, shiny
goldfish, 2/3 the length of the bird. I know from spring birding on
the south shore of Lake Erie that the
I do have a question regarding Osprey that maybe someone can answer. We've had
Osprey nesting in our radio tower the last two years. There are still two young
Osprey that have not fledged the nest yet. It seems late in the year for such
young ones to not have fledged yet. Is this unusual? They

Thanks all for the responses on the Osprey and the red fish. The
prevailing opinion / wisdom is this is either a koi or goldfish that has
made its way out into the world at large. From the responses, this is more
common than I would have imagined.

The warbler was seen from 8:45 am until 11:30am when I left. It was
frequently in view, and actively foraging.

Perhaps the osprey that have not fledged are a second effort on the part of
the parents. They could have lost their first clutch for any number of
reasons not to be known, or they may have lost the nest in an early storm,
or or or. It soulds good that they are close to fledging, though it takes
