An adult Osprey does a little home improvement as he drops a large moss covered stick into its nest as the rest of the family looks on in Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone summer of 2013. Significant crop. Comments please.
Canon 1DX, 500 mm IS, 1.4 III converter.
ISO 2000, f 5.6, 1/2500 sec.

Nice action and pov for this one. Most of the Osprey nest images we see are pointed up and mounted on a man-provided platform. This is a nice change. Good family scene.

Nice image! I like what you have captured. I do think it could be just a tad darker. Thanks for sharing.
