A really astonishing video

[LONDONER]

These days we are almost blasé about some of the things you can see on the Internet but this video I think is exceptional.

Just to whet your appetite, it shows an osprey fishing. In the first part it seems to grab about six fish at the same time, in the second there is an extraordinary shot of it grabbing a flat fish under water and in the last part it catches a fish that seems almost larger than it is. The sheer patience of the cameraman has to be lauded:

Forget superheros.......


Give me the sight from birds of prey, the agility of the reptiles of the desert, the speed of a cheetah, the stealth of the leopard, and power of the rhino!!!

I love nature videos.

Thanks!!

Ospreys must have the most astonishing eyesight. That underwater shot of it taking the flatfish was incredible. It saw that in spite of the fish's camuflaje and from a height and through water.
