Thanks for all the comments. I did enjoy #1 as well. I knew right after I took it would probably end up being my favorite of the day.

Nature photography is such a great learning experience and fun to push yourself to make the image capture things you want. It truly is what you make of it and the time you put in and how much you think about the situation.

last year I was at this location and photographing the ospreys on these somewhat low nests from the bank, and never could really get what I wanted.
this year I went back in the late afternoon light with my kayak and paddled around a while observing their behavior and how close they would allow me to them. the first shot I positioned myself in my small kayak with the sun on the bird and the osprey left the nest and gave me great eye contact for 4 or 5 frames, and I was able to also position myself with trees in the background, as I want more IF shots with some sort of color other than blue sky.

Great shots, all three of them. #1 does stand out, but they are all terrific. That's a massive nest they've got going in the last frame.
