This evening around 5:00 I heard an osprey calling.  Surprised, I looked
up as it flew about 100 ft. over my house with a fish grasped in its
talons.   Because I live at least 1/2 mile from the water, I was wondering
why it was going to a nearby nest at this time of year.  Then, a couple of
seconds behind, an eagle was flying in the same direction, then another
one seemingly in pursuit.  I wonder if the fish was in jeopardy, or was it
the osprey?
