I had to brave a major onslaught of continuous biting flies and mosquitoes to get these shoots; with painful bites per 20 secs, no quality time to set "correct" manual f-stop / focus. All shots are JPEG from the Camera; will process RAWS after itching subsides.
Many sides of Nature:
1. Thriving Osprey Family in a single nest
2. One struggling Homo Sapiens in total awe of these magnificent raptor, happily donating 16th pint of blood to local ecology to be in their presence
Note:
N1. All unplanned, just passing though, 95-f temperate 65% humidity.
N2: 1st two pic's shutter-speed 1/60 (ouch), 3rd picture shutter speed 1/400 (good)
Lesson Leaned: add kick-butt bug-spray and outer-wear clothing to GEAR list

Very Best Regards,
Tu Vu
