Well... I know the Marine Corps uses Ospreys to transport supplies and Marines. But, this isn't what I had imagined. :smiley16:

It looks a lot like a V-22, the way it is hovering over the nest waiting to drop it's load. :grin:

Amazing shots Roger! We have Osprey around here year round, had the chance to watch young from very little to flight ready a couple years ago in Cedar Key, amazing birds that work hard to build their nests and provide for the little ones. Thanks for sharing!

So, what you're saying is that they're smarter than a good portion of the human population? :lol:
