Aerial Fishing

Great footage, David Attenborough style of Ospreys catching fish. The water shake off shot and the orientation of the salmon for the least drag fascinated me the most.

Fantastic footage of an unbelievable flyer. The use of the Ospreys wings to get vertical takeoff from the water is amazing.

Yeah i think he needed to check his weight and balance for the salmon, it was on the edge of not flying, but yeah then he swapped it around long ways, amazing bird.
