We have a pair of Osprays nesting not too far from here on my way back to Morecambe, I keep meaning to call by and see what I can get... This may be just the inspiration I need!

Had it been a full res image in NEF I could have done a lot more I think.

Thanks Robert.  I haven't investigated Define yet.  I'll give it a whirl with the nef when I get time.  There are 8 or so pairs of ospreys at the RSPB reserve in Loch Garten which is a fair bit away from me but they fly to the shore at Spey Bay to feed (think its about 50 miles so they earn their snacks).
