Well this Osprey is 30 day old and finally has the nest to himself since the other 2 chicks died. As you can see in his crop (neck area) he has plenty of food stored in there! Only the strong survive.
Focal distance 15 meters

Eric,

Magnificently sharp pictures!

These are remarkable pictures giving insights to natural selection! Do they ever canabalise the weaker chicks? What about the dead ones?
