2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Osprey, Elliott Island on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, United States
Contented Osprey with Huge Fish

Species: Osprey | Location: Elliott Island on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, United States

I was very close to this osprey, but it didn't care that I was there. Instead, it was enjoying a sumptuous feast!

About The Photographer

I'm an amateur photographer but have been photographing the wildlife here on the Eastern Shore of Maryland for years. My husband and I often go out to Blackwater Refuge, Elliott Island, Hooper's Island, Assateague National Park and Chincoteague National Park, all located on the Eastern Shore. We love the fact that we stumble upon great photo ops of animals and birds. We never know what any given day will offer!
