This was passed on to me, and I thought those of you who have never  
seen slow-motion footage of an osprey "in attack mode" would appreciate.

It is about two minutes long.

There are 3 sequences::

1st sequence: the osprey catches half a dozen fish in one strike.

2nd sequence: the osprey plunges talons into deep water right to the  
bottom to grab his prey. They have an underwater camera that shows the  
fish as the osprey grabs it.

3rd sequence: the osprey captures a fish that looks as if it weighs  
more than the bird!

This is incredible to watch (best viewed in full screen mode)...enjoy!
