The ospreys (Pandion haliaetus) are definitely back at Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge after spending the winter in warmer locations. I captured these images last week of an osprey as it was enjoying a freshly caught fish. I tried to vary the angles a bit for the individual shots, but moved slowly and carefully so that I did not disturb the osprey during its breakfast.

Loved the day I spent with my resident Osprey as it dined on a very large Carp.
