If you're going to dine alone at Lovers Key State Park, you might as well do it in style. I love how this osprey maneuvered his fish dinner within this split tree branch so that it's wedged in there snugly. That way, when feeling peckish, the osprey doesn't have to clamp his talons onto the fish to keep it in position. Rather clever, I'd say.

Quite a shot!
What a fabulous shot. And "feeling peckish"!? I love it.
A beautiful capture, SRQ.
Amazing how some birds actually use tools!
This is a great shot. I was so taken with how gorgeous the bird was I didn't immediately notice the wedged fish. Wow!
Clever, indeed! Beautiful photo!
Birds are amazing. We watch eagles building their nests. They are meticulous.
It's been a long while since I checked in. I see you are still making beautiful photos on the other coast.
We sometimes tag people with phrases like "bird brain." This is just another example of how many birds actually use tools to make their lives easier.
