Splash and Grab!

It is always a joy to watch these master of fishing no matter where they are and today (Sunday) was no exception, it had as had been the norm over the last week, appeared early and circled the fishing pool several times and disappeared, only to re-appear a while later on a mission!One circle and it was locked on to the target.
Splashdown.

Did it or not?

A bit of a struggle ensued, as it strained to get air born again.

Gordon Bennett!! no wonder, as it got up with what must have been close to 10lbs of trout

More fighting from the fish pulled it down some more.

The final tug of war between fish and water against a moulting and tatty Osprey.

Resulted in a fly of with no breakfast, peed of or what?
A few more circuits of the pool and it was of, or so we thought then it was back between trout pools and VP and still no breakfast. A brilliant fight to watch and try to get on film from far away.


What next?
