Lake Bloomington Osprey with a Fish

Lake Bloomington Osprey with a FishLake Bloomington Osprey with a FishAs I was driving around Lake Bloomington, I noticed the Osprey was out circling over the lake. By the time I got to the Dam I noticed that it might be zeroing in on a fish. I parked the car and quickly got into position. I noticed it dove a couple of different times and finally caught a fish but it was to far out to get usable photos, but I was thankful that it flew over the dam to find a place to eat its fresh fish so I could get some images. Usually it gets both sets of talons into the fish and flies with the fish facing forward, but you can see it missed and only had it by one set of talons.
