They are also called #riverhawk or #seahawk. Their #diet is mainly #fish, but they will eat other small #animals. They rarely #scavenge.
This osprey is siting on a pole at the #Apopka #Wildlife Drive. When Fox began triggering the #shutter, the #bird heard the sound and glanced around to make sure Fox wasn’t up to anything more than #photography.
