[QUOTE="STM, post: 561064, member: 12827"] I have found 2 places where I can get within about 100 feet of 2 FL Osprey nests. I sat at one today for over 2 hours waiting for something interesting to happen. In that entire time, Mom got up one time to stretch. I managed to get 5 images in the 1.25 seconds or so she spread her wings. The clouds moved in and out the whole time, as luck would have it, they were there when Mom finally decided to stretch. There is one chick I can see in the nest but since I am shooting up and they are so small (I am guessing a week old at this point), all you can see is the occasional head pop up. While I am home I anticipate hitting my two spots daily to get that one really great shot. Not there yet! D700, 600mm f/4 ED-IF AIS and TC-14B.
