Catching fish in Kananaskis

After returning from the ospreys in Invermere without any shots of them catching fish, I was happy to capture this osprey’s successful hunt in Kananaskis last weekend.

This osprey and its partner hit the lake a couple of times over the course of a few hours. On this run, the raptor was close enough to afford good detail and provide a couple of nice images. Later in the afternoon, one of the osprey settled on a nearby tree to eat another catch to complete the cycle – no catch and release here!

I’ve been visiting this spot frequently and look forward to more opportunities through the summer.

These are great flight shots! Their wings are so powerful and so beautiful.

Great catch. Ospreys are fun to watch as they train their young, as well.
