Osprey Landing

Osprey at Weekie Watchee Reserve near Spring Hill, Florida

1/2000 at f8 and ISO 500 -1/3 EC
Canon 500mm
Canon 7D

I like this shot because most of the Osprey flight shots I have, the Osprey is looking down for the landing --

Nice exposure, pose and branch. There looks to be some haloeing around the bird and the whites are a touch hot on the bird
